流動 ─ 海

油彩 畫布
2010年作
簽名:朴修亨 park soo hyung

朴修亨在《流動—海》(Lot 1376)和《流動—立方體》(Lot 1377)中,分別以正方形帆布上的邊界和立方體的形象,生動地表現出將人類囚禁於荒謬的幽閉空間中的感覺,以作其對當代社會生存危機關注的投射。對朴修亨而言,將人類一剎那自然的反應捕捉描繪,是他的作畫方法,同時亦是他的理念,即是觀察研究人類在社會的行為,再透過色彩抽象地表達出來。

作品中的靈魂在漫無目的地互相碰撞,朴修亨描繪出這刻板的循環,並不是為了重申這與社會的消費和交流模式之間的關係,而是帶來一個更深刻的諷刺—假若我們接受兩者的關係,輕易相信畫家的觀察,我們也就成了作品中其中一個於單調的生活洪流中苦苦掙扎的靈魂。雖然朴修亨嘗試加入充滿活力的原色,試圖改善作品內的世界,然而,由於靈魂缺乏自主意識各個人情感,作者的努力終成徒勞,原色和靈魂的互相襯托只更見無聊。洪流的概念是構成作品的基木因素,但這概念對於那些想要修正這河道的人來說,無疑顯得野蠻和嚴酷,若他在攀登的過程中稍一不慎,就會淹沒於澎湃的人潮中。在《流動—立方體》中,作者以一立體的形式描繪了在日復一日永無止境地飄流的人,卻被困於立方體的邊界裡,一如社會上必須遵守的規範。《流動—海》以一場更急更大型的洪水來表現同一個概念,層層相疊的人物、糾纏不清的色塊,構成了複雜而耐人尋味的意象,深刻而生動地重現出擁擠的環境和急促的生活節奏。朴修亨狠狠地批判了現代化之長遠效果,將會磨平、模造了我們的個性,使我們淪為適合社會的機械,每個人看來都毫無分別、共融和諧,而最終結果,不過是人與人之間極度疏離而已。

Park Su Hyung's concern for an existential crisis of contemporary society is compressed into rigid borders of a square canvas in Flow (Lot 1376) and a cube form in Cube Flow (Lot 1377) to trap the human beings in absurdly vivid claustrophobia. For Park, organic portrayal of minute human beings is his brushstroke as well as his concept; it is a social anthropological investigation of color synchronization manifested in Abstract Expressionism.

Park's literal depiction of a circulating pattern of aimlessly colliding souls not only underpins its obvious link to the patterns of sociality, consumption and exchange but more so adeptly criticizes our easy recognition of these two ties. Establishing his observation as true, we too are already part of this inexhaustible struggle within the monotony of everyday life. Though Park endeavours to improve their conditions through his insertion of vibrant primary colours, the result is still a homogenous image with individuals stripped of autonomous consciousness and emotions, only to be reduced to dull replicas of each other. The sense of flow is fundamental in managing the composition but is also brutally crucial for these human beings to regulate this stream - if one fails to maintain the momentum in laddering up, one may be drowned by the surging currents of people. Cube Flow takes a three dimensional form, drifting figures in a never-ending whirlwind of the arbitrary flow of everyday banality, forced to be bound by social conformities in order to fit within the cube of the given norm. Uttering the same concept, Flow takes on a faster and denser flood with intricate layers of figures tangled in pulsating colours and complex imagery of intriguing intensity, depth and moving shapes to mimic the congested environment and hectic pace of the daily life. Park articulates a criticism on the enduring effects of undigested modernity that in contrary has neutralized and customized our personalities into a mechanical fit, appearing physically homogeneous and harmonious, but only to consequently create a sense of deep isolation within every individual.
