不確定的機械美學

陳淑安打開相機的黑盒子，解構內部的零件，用現成物創作，隨意將機械零件重組拼砌成抽象的雕塑。將原本相機內緊扣的零件拆解重組，重新賦予另一種生命，離開了相機的本質是記錄世界的工具，而成為被記錄的對象。如同解剖一樣，將相機私密的內臟展示在人前，冰冷的鋁鎂合，粗糙的壓鑄表面，像在做一個未來實驗。每一張照片背後，都有一個曾經存在的機械靈魂，訴說着光影的故事。當物件失去原有的功能後，它還有存在價值嗎？作品為存在物，展示本身的純粹美感，讓機械零件呼吸。我們看到的不是相機的死亡，而是攝影的重生，打開了另一種觀看世界的方式。

光影的建築學

她採用強烈的光，重疊幾何形狀的機械零件，將影子融入物體，影子的角色作為主體，虛與實之間互相對話。影子隨着光而存在，隨着黑暗而逝，在按下快門一刻，讓影子變得永恆。抽象的光影如畫筆，創造一個視覺謎題，令觀者進入超現實的空間感，遊走抽象的邊界。

Uncertain Mechanical Aesthetics

Chan Suk On opens the black box of a camera, deconstructs its internal parts, and creates abstract sculptures with found objects, randomly reassembling and reconfiguring mechanical parts. She disassembles and reassembles the camera’s tightly fastened parts, giving them new life. The camera is no longer merely a tool for documenting the world, but has become an object to be recorded. Like an autopsy, she exposes the camera’s most intimate internal organs to the public—the cold aluminum-magnesium alloy, the rough die-cast surface—like conducting a futuristic experiment. Behind each photograph lies a mechanical soul, telling a story of light and shadow. When an object loses its original function, does it still have value? The artwork exists as an object, displaying its pure beauty, letting loose pieces to breathe. What we see is not the death of the camera, but the rebirth of photography, opening up another way of seeing the world.

Architecture of Light and Shadow

She uses strong light to overlap geometrically shaped mechanical parts, integrating shadows into the objects. The shadow becomes the subject, engaging in a dialogue between the real and the virtual. The shadow exists in the light and disappears in the darkness, becoming eternal in the moment the shutter is pressed. Abstract light and shadow act like a paintbrush, creating a visual puzzle that allows viewers to enter a surreal space and wander the boundaries of abstraction.
