淡水,

位於台北盆地淡水河出口。

西元1858年通商,

是台灣北部最早開發的港口。

現在的淡水區,

舊名「滬尾」,

「淡水」則是一個總稱,

泛指淡水河流域一帶,

整個北台灣。


船行熱鬧景象不再。

流水送走往日的滄桑。

如今往返淡水、八里及淡水、

大稻埕間的渡輪乘風破浪

帶領遊客一覽淡水河風情。


走在中正路、真理街、

三民街、清水街⋯

古典閩式、日式建築和老榕樹

依舊靜好,風采猶存。

古董商店的文物、藝品

令人目不暇給。


晴朗的天空突然飄下一陣雨。

太陽依然不捨離去。

此時天邊呈現一道彩虹

持續了約半小時。

看海、遊船、欣賞夕陽⋯

淡水如詩如畫的魅力

令人流連忘返。


Tamsui,

It is located at the outlet of the  Tamsui river in the Taipei Basin.

Trade in 1858 A.d.

It is the earliest developed port in northern Taiwan.


The current  Tamsui area,

old name is "Huwei",

"Tamsui" is a general term,

it generally refers to the area of the Tamsui River Basin.


The lively scene of the boat is no longer.

Flowing water sends away the past.

Nowadays, the round trip between Tamsui, Bali District and Tamsui, 

the ferry between Dadaocheng ride 

the wind and break the waves,

guide tourists through the beautiful views 

of the Tamsui River.


Walking on Zhongzheng Road,

Truth Street, Sanmin Street,

Qingshui Street...

Classical Minnan style, Japanese architecture and old banyan tree

It is still quiet and gracefull.

Cultural relics and art products of antique shops are overwhelming.


The clear sky suddenly rained.

The sun is still loath to leave.

At this moment ,

a rainbow appears in the sky

and  lasted for about half an hour.


Watching the river, 

travelling on a boat, 

enjoying the rainbow 

and sunset...

The poetic and picturesque charm of Tamsui.

It makes people linger and forget 

to return.

Perception 



漫步台北當代藝術館的

古典莊嚴紅磚長廊⋯

許多裝置藝術、視覺藝術、

多元文化和創作映入眼簾:


「 Young Folks: 

世界是一片感知的膜 」 -

看到不同物質與精神世界連結的可能。

作品中有透過彈簧床的體感

振盪、聲音與記憶的延展。

黃珮琪的作品

《一個被事物糾纏的無用之人》:

闡述連結物質世界與精神世界的那一片膜的

本質,是不同維度的能量頻率振動。

我大膽的踏入鋪滿石塊的彈簧床連結的區域。

由戰戰競競的一小步

至輕鬆自在的大快步,

我體會到平衡令人感到的自信。

如果無法保持平衡,

可能會糾纒、糾結

甚至跌倒在那片沉沉浮浮的境地。


「 記憶的囚徒困境 」 -

探討記憶的留存、壓抑與改變。

我覺得記憶是一種紀念,

也是印記。

每個人有不同的經歷與感受。


「 野草不服管 」 -

植物是維持生態平衡與改善環境的核心份子。

堅韌不屈、隨遇而安,

啓發我面對人生世事的勇氣。


「 境未竟 」 -

眼前情境攝入鏡頭時,

是當下感動?

還是一種紀念儀式?


透過這些作品

傳達深度的哲理、內涵,

值得我們細細品味與省思。


Stroll around the Taipei Museum of Contemporary Art

Classical solemn red brick corridor...

Many installation arts, visual arts, multiculturalism and creations 

come into view :


" Young Folks :

The world is a membrane of perception " -

See the connection between different material and spiritual worlds possibly.

There is a physical feeling through the spring mattress in the work.

Oscillation, sound and extension memory.

Huang Yuqi's work

 "A useless Man Entangled by Things"

Explain that the essence of the membrane linking the material world and the spiritual world is the energy frequency vibration of different dimensions.

I boldly stepped on the spring mattress covered with stones.

A small step carefully 

to a relaxed and comfortable big steps,

I feel that balance makes me feel confident.

If I  can't keep my balance,

it may be confused and entangled,

even fell in that ups and downs.


"The Prisoner's Dilemma of Memory" -

Discuss the retention, suppression and change of memory.

I think memory is a kind of commemoration.

It is also an imprint.

Everyone has different experience 

and  feelings.


"Weeds don't obey" -

Plants are the core players in maintaining ecological balance and improving the environment.

Tenacious and unyielding,

It inspires me to have the courage to face the world in life.


"The situation is not yet" -

When the situation in front of you absorbs the camera,

Is it touching at the moment?

Or just a commemorative ceremony?


Through many works

convey in-depth philosophy and connotation.

It is worth savoring and reflecting on.

父親 - Father

 


盈珍油畫 - 日出
Ying Chen Oil painting - Sunrise 



小時候

父親厚實的手常緊緊牽著我慢慢走。

記得有一個週末,

他帶我去他的工作室。

看他專注整理資料,

我則坐在可旋轉的辦公椅上

開心的玩耍。

然後爸帶我去午餐。

印象深刻的一天。

回家途中,

我仰望夕陽映照著爸的笑容⋯

當時的他就是我的唯一。

我懷念那單純的幸福與快樂。

 

未曾見他怨天尤人。

「 嚴以律己,寬以待人 」

是父親留給我們的訓誡。

也是他一生持守的

做人處事生活態度。


父親經常慷慨助人。

他的慈愛永遠長存我心。


When I was little,

my dad’s thick hands held me tightly 

and walked slowly often.

I remember a weekend,

he took me to his office.

Looked at him focus on sorting out 

the information, 

I sat in a swivel office chair 

having a lot of fun.

Then my dad brought me for lunch.

An impressive day.

On the way home,

I looked up at the sunset reflected

Dad's smile…

He was the one and only. 

I miss that simple happiness 

and joy.


I have never seen my dad complain 

about others.

"Be strict with yourself 

and be lenient with others"

my dad left the admonition to us.

It is also his attitude toward life.


My dad was always generous and helpful.

His love endures forever in my heart.
