阿拉里奥欣然宣布艺术家元性媛个展「听不见的听见」于今日开幕。元性媛通过想象的风景构建出奇幻般的叙事，此次展览呈现了艺术家最新创作的17 幅摄影作品和 18 幅绘画，通过拟人化的植被树木，将人们与生活在其中的局内人和局外人之间的种种联系可视化。

Arario Gallery is pleased to present “The Inaudible Audible”, a solo exhibition by WON Seoung Won (b.1972), an artist who builds fantastical narratives through imagined landscapes. This exhibition—comprised of new works, which include 17 photographs and 18 drawings—visualizes the various types of relationships formed between people and the insiders and outsiders who live within them through the personification of trees.

元性媛是天生会讲故事的人——她的作品之美在于其想象力与创作材料之间的触碰。无论是艺术家想象的虚构故事，还是她对照片拼贴的独到选择与使用，都无法完全表达其作品。相反，为了进入她的艺术世界，必须了解虚构与真实是如何交汇的，了解艺术家的创作过程与方法论，以及她作品中的叙事建构在这两个世界中是如何平行的。

WON Seoung Won is a natural born storyteller—the beauty of her works is found at the point where the artist’s imagination comes into contact with the material that realizes it. Neither the fictional stories imagined by the artist nor her unique choice and use of photo-collage can fully convey WON’s oeuvre. Instead, in order to step into her artistic world, one must understand how the fictional and the real come across, and how the artist’s work process and methodology, and her narrative construction within the works are parallel in these two worlds.

元性媛的摄影作品严格从现实角度出发。基于艺术家对周围人物和故事的密切观察，这些都是在照片中捕捉到的，她通过照片拼贴的媒介构建了一个富有想象力的世界。

WON's photographic works strictly start from reality. Based on the artist’s close observations of people and stories that surround her, which are captured in photographs, she builds an imaginative world through the medium of photo-collage.

换句话说，元性媛的作品捕捉了现实的原始状态，是建立在摄影作为媒介的传统之上的。数千张照片通过Photoshop的复制、裁剪和粘贴，成为一幅幅虚构的图像。

In other words, WON’s works, which initially capture the rawness of reality, are founded on the tradition of photography as a medium. Thousands of these photographs are copied, cropped, and pasted through Photoshop to become realized as one fictional image.
