展覽介紹
莊昀，1983年生於臺北，畢業於西班牙馬德里康普頓斯大學藝術學院。她的創作經常取材自日常生活，以塑膠袋、舊衣物、掃把等尋常物件為媒介，透過刺繡、縫紉與編織等細膩而反覆的手工勞動，探究物質背後所承載的記憶、消費文化，以及個人經驗如何延伸並與社會產生連結。
《思念你如同思念自己》是莊昀為本次展覽全新發展的作品。展覽籌備期間，藝術家向校內教職員及新竹市民眾募集近兩千件舊衣。這些原本閒置於不同家庭的衣物，穿著、洗滌、收納與歲月留下的痕跡，在離開原來的主人之後，重新匯聚於展場。莊昀透過對媒材敏銳而精準的掌握，將衣物拆解、剪裁、縫合，抽離原有的款式、功能與身體尺度，使複雜的服裝語言轉化為低限而柔軟的視覺語彙，最終形成一朵朵漂浮於空間中的「記憶雲朵」。
莊昀將數位世界中無形的「雲端」，轉化為由舊衣構成、可被觀看與穿梭的實體景觀。觀眾行走於作品之間，彷彿進入由眾人生命片段匯聚而成的記憶場域；其中偶有絮絮低語，也偶有幽默的擬像；形成新的語彙及特殊的集體記憶，其中也有互動藝術的可能性、是永續發展的最佳藝術表現形式。
Exhibition Introduction
Tania Tsong de O’Pazo was born in Taipei in 1983 and graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts at the Complutense University of Madrid, Spain. Her artistic practice often draws upon everyday life, employing ordinary objects such as plastic bags, discarded clothing, and brooms as her materials. Through the delicate and repetitive handwork of embroidery, sewing, and weaving, she explores the memories embedded within material objects, the culture of consumption, and the ways in which personal experience extends beyond the individual to connect with society.
“I Miss You as Much as I Miss Myself “ is a new work developed by Tania specifically for this exhibition. During the preparatory period, the artist invited faculty members, staff, and students of the university, as well as residents of Hsinchu City, to donate their unwanted clothing, ultimately collecting nearly two thousand garments. Once left unused in different households, these garments carry traces of wear, washing, storage, and the passage of time. Having departed from their original owners, they are now brought together once again within the exhibition space. With a sensitive and precise command of her materials, Tania dismantles, cuts, and stitches the garments, stripping them of their original styles, functions, and body dimensions. In doing so, she transforms the complex language of clothing into a minimal yet soft visual vocabulary, ultimately creating “clouds of memory” that appear to float throughout the space.
Tania transforms the intangible “cloud” of the digital world into a physical landscape composed of discarded clothing—one that can be seen, entered, and traversed. As viewers move among the works, they seem to enter a field of memory formed from fragments of many lives. Murmured recollections and playful illusions occasionally surface within it, giving rise to new forms of expression and a distinctive collective memory. The work also opens up possibilities for interaction, while offering a compelling artistic reflection on sustainability and the renewed life of materials.
