奧黛麗·西門(Audrey Salmon)于1977年出生在法國里昂。
于2001年拿到里昂高等藝術(shù)高等學(xué)校的平面設(shè)計碩士學(xué)位之后,她就開始了她的創(chuàng)作生涯,而平面設(shè)計和攝影都是她的表達媒介。
2007年她參加了意大利設(shè)計品牌Moleskine為年輕藝術(shù)家舉辦的藝術(shù)創(chuàng)作比賽,并獲得了第三名。
比賽后為獲獎?wù)叩淖髌放e辦的“Invitation au Voyage”展覽使她有機會把她的創(chuàng)作帶到一些亞洲城市做巡展,其中包括香港、新加坡和臺北。
自2005年起,她開始在北京生活和工作。
來到中國是一份令人難以置信的都市體驗,她對于這個城市的“歐洲”式的設(shè)想被一種全新的建筑景觀打破和取代。
城市的景觀在 不停的改變,這便是她近期工作背后的靈感源泉。
在這里,人們會感覺到永恒不斷的位移,因為“你幾乎永遠不知道身在何方,因為這里所有的一切每天都在變化”。
攝影本身在追趕這種都市張力的能力上是存在限制的;而這個展覽旨在將這個奇特而迷人的宇宙的點滴重構(gòu)和詮釋為圖像。
生物體本身的變化來自基因的突變,然而在過去幾十年的中國,因為劇烈的經(jīng)濟與改革開放,中國的城市面貌也產(chǎn)生了仿彿基因突變的效果。
居民內(nèi)心深處的欲望和危機感日以俱增,淵遠流長的文化傳統(tǒng)在城市建構(gòu)參與者的眼中交替與淪陷。
奧黛麗·西門(Audrey Salmon)的 “建筑突變”系列作品展現(xiàn)出一個旁觀者的記錄并觸動觀者的臆想。
在4月20日星期日的下午3點,在FakeSpace虛空間會舉辦一個抽獎活動,得獎?wù)邔⒖色@得藝術(shù)家本人簽名攝影作品一張。請有效填寫現(xiàn)場發(fā)送的表格,并放置在現(xiàn)場的抽獎箱,即可參與本次活動。
Audrey Salmon was born in 1977 in Lyon, France. After graduating from Lyon’s High Institute of Arts with a Master Degree in Graphic Design
2001, she has been engaged in her artistic production, which uses both graphic design and photography as a medium of expression.
In 2007, Audrey participated to Italian designer-stationery brand Moleskine’s competition for young artists, where she won the thirdprize.
This resulted in Audrey’s participation to ? Invitation au Voyage?, an itinerant exhibition which brought her work to a number of Asiancities, in cluding Hong Kong, Singapore and Taipei.
Since 2005 Audrey lives and works in Beijing. Her coming to China was a mind-boggling urban experience, as her ‘European’ vision of the city was shattered and replaced by a new kind of architectural landscape.
This was the source of inspiration behind her most recent work, which sees the urban landscape as an entity in perpetual mutation.
People experience a feeling of constant displacement, as ‘you almost never know where you are, just because from a day to another everything has changed’. Photography itself poses limits to the ability to catch that urban intensity; this exhibition, therefore, aims to recompose, and translate into images, the fragments of this strange and fascinating Universe.
