阚萱:用深思记录存在
阚萱,1972年出生于中国安徽省宣城。阚萱生于文化大革命末期的1970年代初期。她的早期训练结合了中国传统的经典墨画技艺与实验性的视频艺术,并与中国观念艺术的前沿艺术家如耿建仪(1962年出生于中国)和张培力(1957年出生于中国)共同合作。他们在杭州的早期工作为视频艺术和观念艺术的发展奠定了基础,并催生了过去二十年间许多最有趣的艺术实践。阚萱的早期作品涵盖了从表演到摄影和视频的广泛领域,专注于日常生活的记录,以一种冥想的、自觉的方式进行。
阚萱的非凡能力在于其沟通和表达人类真实存在的能力,即“此时此刻”,探讨那些超越时间的议题,并展示存在和主体性的物质性。她的作品极具人性,传达了一种即时的存在感,作为一种感官和内脏的体验,其中美学通过视觉、触觉和听觉的结合来进行解读。她对身体与物体和现象之间关系的探讨引人入胜,使观察者被这些经常汇聚成强烈讽刺感的小快乐体验所吸引。
