这件作品是将父亲的证件照放到 Photoshop中,不断一份为二的进行剪裁,最后只留下一个像素点的记录。经由此过程,父亲的面孔由完整到破碎,再到像素点,完成从具象到抽象的转变。
不断放大,并裁剪照片的动作暗示着想要剖析了解父亲的愿望;但与此同时, 此动作也抹去了父亲的个人特征:照片从一个具体的人像,转变为无法辨认、 含义模糊的彩色方块,代表着作者对父亲的熟悉又陌生,亲密又疏离的复杂情感。
The video titled “Dad” serves as a visual documentation of the artist’s manipulation of her father’s ID photo using Photoshop. The artist repeatedly crops one copy into two, progressively fragmenting the image until only a single pixel dot remains. This process symbolizes the transformation from a complete and recognizable face to a fragmented and abstract representation, marking the transition from the figurative to the abstract.
