沒有任何力量可以阻止時間和生活的流動,唯獨攝影可以凝結時間並將生活周遭的景象紀錄下來。以攝影為媒介呈現的視覺藝術,可傳達文字無法敘述的內涵,所以常有人用「一張照片,勝過千言萬語」形容攝影作品的張力。
將精心拍攝的多張照片,鋪陳為一組圖片故事的創作方法,有點類似電影蒙太奇的手法。本攝影展集以此理念出發,甄選汪曉青、張秀凰、張詠捷、簡扶育等四位女性攝影師的五組照片故事,呈現臺灣女性攝影家的藝術創作。
這些照片故事中涵蓋了人像、人文關懷、風景、原住民、文化等面向,也有幾組作品隱含了性別主流的概念。透過這些女性攝影加細膩的心思,凝結瞬間的感動,展現出影像的豐富性及在第生命力。
臺灣從 1970 年代以來,隨著政治民主、經濟發展、教育普及,攝影風氣逐漸流行,經常可見背著攝影器材的女性在進行攝影記錄。雖然兩性平權在中華民國已經是主流思想,各行各業都有女性專才;但無可諱言的是,攝影工作的體力負擔較重,女性攝影家站上檯面的並不多見。我們也趁此機會,規劃了這項展覽,將臺灣女性攝影家的作品介紹給外國友人。
Nothing can stop the flow of time - only photography can crystallize the moment and the surrounding environment into a permanent image. Photography can capture scenes that are inexpressible in language; thus the old adage, a picture is worth a thousand words.
With close attention paid during both shooting and arrangement, these series of pictures are used to create photographic narratives, much as a director might compose a film montage. The idea of photography-as-story underpins the exhibition of five series of photographic works by Wang Hsiao-chin, Chien Fu-yu, Chang Hsiu-huang and Chang Yung-chieh, who were selected to represent the artistry of Taiwan's female photographers.
The photos in the exhibition cover the range of portraiture, humanitarian concerns, landscape, aboriginal culture and culture in general; some of the works also tackle gender main streaming. Through the transformative process of these photographer' minds, the moment has been captured to produce a rich variety of images bursting with lively local culture.
Since the 1970s, photography has flourished in concert with Taiwan's economic development, democratization and the universalization of education so that female photographers have become common. Although gender equality is now a mainstream issue in the Republic of China, with women well-represented in all fields and professions, there is no denying that the physical demands of lugging around heavy camera equipment has some effect on limiting the umber of women photographers at the pinnacle of the profession. This exhibition is thus a great opportunity to introduce the work of these Taiwanese women photographers to a wider, international audience.
