东画廊|张云垚的毛毡三要素:皮肤

 

欣逢张云垚个展“皮肤 手势 语言”将于本月29日开幕,东画廊特此采用一个全新视角回顾艺术家的毛毡绘画/素描作品。组成展览题目的三个词——皮肤、手势及语言——是相互关联的文本要素,形成一个图词辩证的观念体系,意图解码艺术家长期毛毡实验及其特殊的表意过程。

 

皮肤是艺术家首先设想的模仿对象,以此呈现该材料遭遇变故的知觉状态。通过将皮肤的概念用作切入点,艺术家在毛毡上构思了一个被置换的主体,围绕图像制造中的一连串侧向力而展开。

 

在刚开始毛毡绘画/素描的时候,艺术家偶然间描述道其叙事结构中的符号学动向。他故意模糊图像触觉与视觉维度的根本区别,对艺术史追根溯源的尝试是用来将任意视觉转换成不同强度的触觉,与形式主义范畴中,从触觉到视觉的线性审美迁移产生反差。

 

不同质地的家用装饰织物,从窗帘与靠垫到沙发套与墙纸,完全占据画面并成为图像,然而借由作为视察物体的图像母题与作为拾得物体的图像表面之间的共栖关系,图像本身得以定位。虽然这样一个图像的质感被传达为一块布料,深植于观看者的眼中,它并没有诉诸观看者的眼睛而是诉诸观看者的指端,去触碰成为皮肤的毛毡。

 

由于这层皮肤阻挡了其他质地的存在,很难去鉴别他绘制的织物究竟原本就由毛毡制成或仅仅看上去像是毛毡。艺术家勾画了一种紧紧抓住的感觉,或者说是持守事物的想法,强调了想象的碰触,以此作为起点并利用与客体及主体同时接合的皮肤的概念挑战所谓图像的真实。跨肉身性的叙事在这一点上恰恰是该种渗透画面的身体互动。

 

On the occasion of the advent of ZHANG Yunyao’s solo exhibition “Skin Gesture Body” on July 29, Don Gallery looks back to the artist’s felt drawing in a new retrospective. The three words that constitute the title of the exhibition – skin, gesture, and body – are the interrelated textual elements devised as a conceptual triad, a dialectic between words and images, to decode the specificity of the signifying process in his long term experiment on felt.

 

Skin is the mimetic object posited by the artist to stage the altered perceptual status of the material. By using the idea of skin as an entry point, the artist formulates a displaced subject on felt that encompasses the flow of lateral forces in image-making.

 

In the early phase of felt drawing, the artist occasionally qualifies the semiotic thrust of his narrative structure. He deliberately obscures the foundational distinction between the haptic and the optical dimensions of an image, taking his art-historical attempts to transform everything optical into varying intensities of tactility, which provides a contrast with the aesthetic transition from the haptic to the optical in the formalist terms.

 

Different textures of decorative textiles for domestic use, ranging from curtains and cushions to sofa covers and wall papers, fully occupy the frame, while the institution of framing is coined by the symbiotic relationship between the motif of image as a viewed object and the surface of image as a found object. Although the quality of such an image conveyed as the perception of a piece of cloth is rooted in the eyes of the viewer, it does not really appeal to the eyes but to the fingertips of the viewer, against the skin of felt.

 

It is hard to tell whether the textiles that he draws are made of felt in the first place or they just seem to be felt because the skin just prevents the existence of any other texture. By tracing out an sense of physical grasping, or to say, the idea of taking hold of things, the artist begins with an emphasis on the imagined touch which challenges the truth of images with the notion of skin interfacing with both objects and subjects. The inter-corporeal narrative at this point is precisely the bodily interactions permeating the frame.
