「憑衣hyoi」影像創作展覽：論衣服的社會框架

Abstract

衣物作為「皮膚的皮膚」，除了保暖禦寒等基本功能外是在尚未接觸前推測他人性格的依據之一，同時也是人們的自我物透過物質具象化的第一層表現，對於每一個人在日常生活上無疑有著十分重大的影響。然而生活在社會中就勢必會受到各式各樣規則的束縛，除了法律的規定外，各種文化社會有著許多不同的行為規範，什麼樣的性別應該如何穿著；什麼樣的身份又應該如何打扮，這些限制加諸在人們身上，也侷限了人們發掘更多可能性的機會。面對這樣的社會環境中的挑戰自然而然也衍生出了許多社會議題。\n\n結合以上現象以及本身對於影像的興趣，得出本創作的主要命題：透過攝影影像的展出以及互動設計的展覽來讓觀展人能夠結合自身生命經驗的回顧進而思考何謂正常與何謂不正常的穿著，又會如何解讀本次的展覽以及穿著於一個人的意義，希望藉此，在衣物所帶有性別屬性已經逐漸模糊的現今，能夠促成一個不只是能尊重差異更甚至是欣賞各種獨特可能的社會環境。

As skin of skin, clothes can function as body warmer, as basis of judgement, and as the material symbolization of one’s self; therefore, clothes can undoubtedly cause a major impact on one’s daily life. However, except for laws, there are various social and cultural rules restraining how people should dress themselves, and what male or female should wear. Under this circumstance, the possibilities of people exploring themselves are restricted, and these limitations derivatively result in diverse social issues.\n\nAccording to the above mentioned phenomena and the interest in photography, the main purposes of this exhibition are to prompt viewers to contemplate what are so-called normal or abnormal ways of dressing with their experiences, and the meanings of clothes to everyone through displaying a collection of portraits featuring five models. If possible, this project can bring out the issues about people respecting others’ differences and appreciating every distinct possibility.
