《觀察者》BEEWATCHER

關於展覽 / About Exhibition :

「觀察者」BEEWATCHER

有一天我把蜂后咀嚼了，從此牠們便跟隨着我。

Gordey是一位具像畫家，畢業於中央聖馬丁學院和海牙皇家藝術學院。在25歲時，他意外地得到了一具蜜蜂屍體，隨後透過水晶膠首次就其製作標本。完成後，Gotdey因為失去了動力的蜜蜂，從而體會到龐大的失落感。逐漸地，促使了他對蜜蜂的好奇。

「觀察者」是Gordey的首次個人展覽，同時定位及總括了他這些年來就蜜蜂的研究與自習。透過是次展覽，Gordey嘗試與觀眾分享他與蜜蜂的經過及迷戀。

「觀察者」是整個展覽的前設。Gordey認為創造藝術是透過相當的觀察與專注。他希望透過作品，帶領觀眾體驗對蜜蜂第一身的觀察歷程；從而，呈現對蜜蜂末知及靜止的狀態。觀眾會以「觀察者」的切人點，遊走於其創作過程中。Gordey會一步一步揭示紀錄蜜蜂的慣性方法，從攝影、沖曬、藍印以及作畫表達他對蜜蜂的迷戀與想法。

They have been following me ever since I swallowed the queen bee.

Gordey is a figurative painter, graduated from Central Saint Martins and Royal Academy of Arts, the Hague. At the age of 25, he accidentally encountered a bee corpse, and he used resin to make a specimen of it for the first time. Due to the lifelessness of the bee, Gordey received a huge sense of despair after the completion of the specimen.Subsequently, this experience stimulated his curiosity about bees.

"BEEWATCHER" is Gordey's first solo exhibition, meanwhile, positioning and summarising his research and studies on honeybees over the years. Through this exhibition, Gordey attempts to share his experience and possession with honeybees to the spectators.

"BEEWATCHER" is the premise of the entire exhibition. Gordy deeply believes that art is created through considerable observation and concentration. Through his works, he attempts to lead the spectators to experience the entire process of observation on honeybees; thus, presenting the unknown and static state of honeybees. The spectators will walk through the creative process from the point of view of the"BEEWATCHER". Gordey will reveal his habitual method of documentation, expressing his possession and thoughts on honeybees from photography, photo-processing, cyanotype and painting.
