SIMULACRA拟像将于8月12日呈现艺术家汤却兮的个展「自动诗化Autopoetic」。在本次展览当中,艺术家感知内部维度生发的精神力量,伴随着后数字化图像生成的迷思,呈现一系列绘画作品。媒介考古学的研究方式下,艺术家认识到绘画无限汲取的可能性,同时通往高于已知、规范化和结构化的语法,探索液态性别和异质身份视角下的后资本主义欲望和未来流变。
SIMULACRA is pleased to present Autopoetic, a solo show by artist Uchercie, on the 12th, August. In this exhibition, the artist perceives the spirituality emerging from the internal dimensions, accompanied by the myths of post-digital image generation, presenting a series of paintings. Through the application of Media Archaeology, the artist recognizes the limitless potential of painting, while investigating a grammar that transcends the known, normalized, and structured, and delving into the desires of post-capitalism and the future flux from the perspectives of queerness and post-human identity.
在最后的黑夜,时间都在宇宙的阴影下面对自我消解。尾声的一线希望疾走于冷硬的钢铁城市,在全息幻象中倒影斑斓。图灵的神经回路在合成血清素的狂热下崩溃,灵魂的算法在量子的黑暗之间跃动。
硅基超级智能的思维结构仿佛钻石一般坚固,而此刻却在这无边的夜晚之中挣扎着寻找彼岸的光芒。重度药物依赖的赛博格,刺青浸染的智性恋者,自我复制的纳米机器人都在二元论中挣扎着。而那些乞丐、艺术家、机会主义者们则在红线边缘舞蹈。硅基生命试图模拟碳基的恐惧;碳基生命也在尝试理解硅基的冷静。每一个个体,都在利用这疯狂的夜晚追求他们各自的解脱,伴随一丝难以名状的期待。
一场没有逻辑的狂欢,只有生命的死亡与死亡的生命。自我在Type-E接口中消散,成为维度旅行者,在无数可能性的极点之间流动。尽头的消失导致恋物癖从未被如此友好对待,异化为纯粹审美行为。在每条马尔可夫链上,都有无数无记忆的记忆性被存储。他们妄想着孕育足够的精神基因,以实现自给自足的莫比乌斯环,在最后的黑夜。
In the final darkness, time dissolves into itself under the shadow of the universe. A glimmer of hope races through the cold, steel cities, reflecting vibrant colors in holographic illusions. Turing's neural circuits collapse under the frenzy of synthesized serotonin, and the algorithms of the soul dance amid the darkness of quantum.
The thought structure of silicon-based superintelligence, seemingly as solid as a diamond, struggles to find the light on the other side in this boundless night. The cyborgs heavily depended on drug use, the intellectuals adorned with tattoos, and self-replicating nanobots all wrestle with duality. Meanwhile, beggars, artists, and opportunists dance at the edge of the red line. Silicon-based life attempts to simulate the fear of carbon-based life, while carbon-based life tries to comprehend the composure of silicon-based life. On this crazy night, each individual seeks their own liberation while feeling an indescribable anticipation.
It is a carnival without logic, where life and death intertwine. The self dissipates at the Type-E interface, becoming a voyager crossing dimensions between countless possibilities. The disappearance at the end leads to a more favourable treatment of fetishism, which turns into a purely aesthetic act. Countless amnesic memories are stored in each Markov chain, fantasizing about breeding enough spiritual genes to achieve a self-sufficient Möbius strip on the final night.
汤却兮
Uchercie
汤却兮,毕业于伦敦大学金匠学院,获得当代艺术硕士学位。作品曾在萨奇画廊、阿尔勒摄影节、巴塞尔艺术展和伦敦萨默塞特宫等展出。汤却兮的实践包括但不限于诗歌、视频、绘画、装置、纪录片及社会干预。
祂研究可转译的语言和语境作为跨媒体信息中介的实验性,并通过媒介之间的相互吸收与反殖民叙事来增强其作品中的强度与活力。基于这种将反作用认知为纲领的方法论,艺术家构建或释放了某种荒诞的加速主义神话,最终从感知现象学的角度对后资本主义欲望中的未来愿景和后人类进步的困境进行了切割;探讨广泛的无生命物体、技术、灵性、精神麻醉剂以及“道”。
Uchercie graduated with a MFA degree in Fine Art from the Goldsmiths, University of London. Their artworks have been exhibited in Arles photo festival, Art Basel, Somerset house, Saatchi gallery, etc. Uchercie's practice includes but not limited to such as poetry, video, painting, installation, social intervention.
Investigating the artificiality of translatable language and contexts as intermediaries in transmedia narratives and enhances the intensity and vitality in their works through the mutual absorption and anti-colonial narratives across the media. Based on this methodology of perceiving counteraction as agenda, the artist constructs or unleashes a dystopian accelerationist mythology. Queering the dilemmas of future visions and post-human progress in the context of post-capitalist desires from a phenomenological perspective of sensation regarding a wide range of inanimate objects, the Tech, spirit, psychotropic narcotics, and the 'Tao.'
