马蒂·布豪恩的作品探讨一般意想不到、鲜为人知的跨文化动力影响,将艺术性迁移与文化性误解以明显的模式展现出来。马蒂·布豪恩的作品特点是在具体指涉和一般影射之间、瞬间诗意和不可思议的感觉之间不断取舍。
该作品由一个狭窄的铝制框架中的一块丝绸面板组成。矩形图像显示从上到下三种颜色的水平渐变,从蓝色到浅蓝绿色到灰白色。不同颜色之间的过渡看起来是无缝的。丝绸在捕捉光线时有轻微的光泽。看着作品,人们开始看到闪烁的色彩,好像它们的强度在不断变化。
先前的丝绸绘画系列包含色彩鲜艳的色块或飞溅的圆点,使人联想到后绘画的抽象,而该系列作品则缩小选色范围来显示柔和的色彩渐变。染色过程的根源是马蒂·布豪恩对通常用于宗教或仪式目的的传统纺织生产技术的调查和使用,但并不显示其来源的图像痕迹。
The practice of Matti Braun (b. 1968) investigates the unexpected, often little-known effects of cross-cultural dynamics, making visible patterns of artistic migrations and cultural misrecognitions. His work is characterized by a constant negotiation between concrete references and general allusions, between poetic ephemerality and an uncanny sense of visceral immediacy.
The work consists of a silk panel in a narrow aluminium frame. The rectangular image shows a horizontal progression of three colors, from top to bottom, blue into a light blue-green into off-white. The transitions between the different colors appear seamless. There is a slight sheen to the silk as it catches the light. Looking at the work, one begins to see the colors shimmer and glow, as if their intensity were continuously changing.
