| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 藝術跨域研究所 === 107 === Beginning with the discussion of the concept of ‘spectre’ before expanding onto the exploration of ‘spirit photography’ and the ‘blindfold taoist ritual’, the article reflects on the narration of the image and the discourse of cultural studies in the context of contemporary art. The ‘ghost story book’ serves as a case study for contemporary art practice, examining the relationship between archives, ghosts and the local through the idea of ‘ghost archive’. In this way, the idea of pháinn-mi̍’ is proposed to carry out a reflection on a methodology for narration on ghosts as well as the relationship between them and the modern society, emphasising on the consistent presence of ghosts in geographical spaces. Events and locations of recent accidents interpreted as ‘zhua jiaoti (catching replacements)’ or ‘sang bah-tsang (a ritual regarding)’ are taken as examples to explore ghosts of incidental and unintentional deaths as well as the ‘being-dead’ concept implied in related art projects. Through the absence of gods and the metaphors of monsters and youkais, the article ultimately investigates the interactions between ‘mo-sin-á’and the‘undead’ within the human environment, on one hand, aiming at adopting nether-geographies’ as a method for imagining liminal spaces, while on the other hand, re-establishing the practical knowledge and ecological relationships that belong to neither the human nor the spirit world.
