Summary:碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 新媒體藝術學系碩士班 === 103 === This paper attempts to discuss the aesthetical logic of my work in five chapters. It begins with a review of my past works in the first chapter, where I proceeded by form of installation, theatrically arranging the exhibition venue to display the little things found within my past experiences in life through dramatization and imagination, thus allowing them to go beyond their mediocre state in reality and transform into humorous, imaginative links. In the second and third chapter, I used the production of images to crystallize the multiple roles and identity issues in the life of the examined subject. In the fourth chapter, I begin to analyze how my practices in video imagery during three years of graduate school has helped shape my individual style. Before this, I approached it in an almost literary way, that is to firstly put everything down in words or writing, in a form similar to the diary or fragmentary documentations of the daily. Through these records, one discovers a fragmented, undisciplined or imagined connection, where one is able to uncover the daily normality of the individual subjects, and use it as a text to understand and fulfill the desires of the other’s body. This induces the video to oscillate between documentary and fiction, thereby summoning an illusionary performance, as if the other were reflected by a mirror reflexive of the ideal, projecting the shadows of an imaginary spectacle, or as if watching the metamorphosis of insects, transforming into another form via the same organism, spreading its illusory wings.
