Collector - 收集者
Portrait 2013 -Douglas Engelbart
「我常常會捨不得買新的東西，與其購買，亦常常會有自己動手做一個出來看看的想法與行動。久而久之，我養成了使用回收電器，或是改裝廢棄物件、零件以再利用的習慣。」--- 鄭先喻
在這次「收集者版本1.0.0」中，藝術家鄭先喻將展出五件全新創作，這些作品都將再次利用他所收集來的物件，重新建構、轉化自己對於生活中不平的世間事物。「收集者」這個計畫。它不只收集了被人們視為無用的材料，也收集著這世間中假的生命道德、虛假的和平以及人性的逞強。
“To reuse wasted products or buying new things, I sometimes struggle with them. Then I use to make one by myself instead of buying. Over a long period of time, I have this habit and develop some skills via those process by modifying, recycling some E-waste or secondhand materials.” ---Hsien-Yu CHENG
This process is also concerned with his creative works. he tries to symbolize or bring some thoughts and things are happened around our life, society even nature that he doesn't like into his works. Maybe those things that he doesn't want to see or he doesn't like are not really important for many people, but he still keep collecting those phenomenons that are happened around us. So he starts to have this project “Collector”. It’s not only collecting abandoned objects or E-waste, it’s also collecting sanctimonious justice, value and humanity.
Hsien-Yu CHENG presents 5 works In [collector 1.0.0] at tamtamART TAIPEI. IPIX this time. Three of them are related to his thoughts about perspective between human and life. The other two, one is that he would like to express respect to the inventor of computer mice. The other one is a kind of experimental prototype, it’s about how to generate energy by bio materials and eco-tech.
