碩士 === 國立臺南藝術大學 === 造形藝術研究所 === 106 === The thesis explores the chronological development of the researcher’s art creation in the postgraduate stage, and the titles of the chapters are the name of the series of works. Chapter 1 “Disappearing Tone” describes my personal status at the time, space and milieu as well as how did I confront and make a balance in such situation with the energy of creation, and then be conscious of the constancy of disappearance. Chapter 2 “Things in the Gaze” describes the revealing alienation through the gaze of daily commodities in the corner. Attempting to explore the indivisible state among the object, corporeality and the field in the gaze. Chapter 3 “Offsite” through the defamiliarization that came from the field, and further explores the subject-object relation between self and beings, and responds to the concept of “Il y a” proposed by Emmanuel Levinas. Chapter 4 “Holiday Plaza” describes how the distorted exotic landscapes exist in our memories, incorporated in our impression of residence with its “familiarity.” And through this distortion, reinterprets the relationship between self and the field. I take the field as a medium of constant motion overlap with the body, and discuss the occult about the object with its defamiliarization. This occult is reflected by the perceptual experience from disappearance, fragility, suspension, temptation and summon. They are related to the invisible presence in the field, which are able to assert themselves because of the sense of absence. The disappearance of constancy, gaze, Il y a, distortion and other various kinds of concepts extended by painting activities are what I use to express the core concept by different points in this paper. I use them as a basis to inquiry the essence of things that always exist but never show up, and that appear because of absence.
