Speaking Through an Object, Mouth speaking through a photograph, 2017 © Jonny Briggs
《后浪》的照片故事第4期,英国艺术家乔尼·布里格斯将分享自己的作品《令人不愉快的事实》中的一张名为"通过物体说话,通过照片说话"的照片背后的故事。《令人不愉快的事实》是对于泽西岛掩盖虐待儿童行为的超现实的考察。
In the fourth chapter of stories behind Peer to Peer, the UK based artist Jonny Briggs shares the story behind the image “Speaking Through An Object,Mouth Speaking Through A Photograph”, which belongs to the series Unpalatable Truths, a surreal examination of the cover-up of child abuses on the island of Jersey.
通过物体来说话
Speaking Through An Object
乔尼·布里格斯 JONNY BRIGGS
牧师的照片中插入一张张开的嘴,这样的场景被二次拍摄让语言失去其效力而变得沉默。如果你凑近看,会注意到照片中纸张的裂痕。这张照片让我想起了口技表演者操纵假人,也由此暗示出一个人是如何通过另一个人讲话。
A mouth speaks through a photograph of a priest, which was re-photographed, rendering the words silent. If you look closely, you'll notice rips in the paper. The image reminds me of the ventriloquist dummy, of how one person can speak through another.
口技表演者操纵假人让我联想到了做艺术品的过程,这个过程其实是一个机会,一个能够通过物体讲话、与自己进行对话以及表达那些难以言喻的东西的机会。这张照片被装裱在红色亮面漆刷过的木框中,让我觉得它像是双唇,像是一张能够发声的张着的嘴。
The art making process, to me, is an opportunity to speak through an object, to have a conversation with the self, and to say the unsayable. The piece is framed in red gloss painted wood, which I find becomes like lips, or an open mouth through which the voice speaks.
