作品简介
在日本，有“屏风”和“挂轴”这样的重要艺术形式。它们是日本美术中具有代表性的形式，也是日本文化的重要组成部分。 其中，“屏风”是由可折叠的板构成，通常为双折形式，用来分隔室内空间或挡风，但因其高度的美学价值，也被视为艺术作品而备受推崇。屏风上常常描绘日本的风景、历史场景、花鸟或抽象图案等多样主题。 而“挂轴”则是一种用于展示纵向长幅绘画或书法作品的媒介。其内容涵盖季节风景、诗歌、禅语、书法名句等，体现了日本的美学感受与哲学思想。屏风与挂轴都展现了日本传统的美术技艺与艺术才华，体现了日本文化的美与细腻。这些作品常见于日本的家庭、寺院、美术馆，是感受日本历史与美学的绝佳机会。 在这里，我结合自身长期从事影像与摄影创作的经验，将显示器与智能手机的屏幕比拟为屏风与挂轴，并借由日本的传统手法加以重构，以“工艺影像”（Film Craft）之名加以介绍。 作品１： 寂静中的警声 诗意纪录片 | 自主制作 2024 自然始终在呼唤共存。 然而，我们却一次次忽视了这份呼唤。 这里的“おりん”是日本传统的佛具。 当它在自然中响起时，仿佛是一种信号，引导人们心意合一，回归纯净。 让它成为争端结束的信号。 让它成为我们改变的信号。 おりん的回响，召唤着人与自然的和谐共处。 作品2: srk(写乐) 摄影艺术｜2016 写乐，这位仅仅活动了 10 个月却留下 145 幅作品的谜样浮世绘师，至今仍让人着迷。他所描绘的役者形象，五官与身体被大胆变形，表情与姿态被夸张演绎，仿佛随时要从画面中跃然而出。这种充满生命力的作品，不仅在日本，更在世界范围内持续吸引着观者。我也是其中的一员。受他那打破常规的世界观启发，我创作了《srk》。通过这组作品，我回望他所处时代的文化，并在当下重新表达。本次以 Volume 1 至 Volume 4 呈现四种风格的探索。 作品3： 森林的木琴 / NTT DoCoMo 品牌短片 | 2011 利用日本森林的间伐木材制作全长 44 米的巨大木琴，木球顺坡而下敲击出巴赫《主啊，人类仰望的喜悦》。作品完全依靠物理结构与自然环境实现，没有使用 CG 或人工音效修饰。木球与木材的声音在森林间回荡，传递出人与自然共生的纯粹诗意。它不仅是一部广告，更是一场设计、工艺与自然环境的实验，将声音、空间、生态和人类感官紧密结合。该作品发布后在全球范围内引起巨大反响，获得了戛纳国际广告节金狮奖等众多国际奖项，被视为“感性设计”与“可持续性传播”的代表案例。

Description
In Japan, byōbu (folding screens) and kakejiku (hanging scrolls) are important traditional art forms and essential elements of Japanese culture. Byōbu, made of foldable panels—often in pairs—were originally used to divide interior spaces or block drafts, but came to be highly valued as artworks for their aesthetic refinement. They are decorated with diverse themes, from landscapes and historical scenes to birds, flowers, and abstract patterns. Kakejiku, on the other hand, serve as a medium for vertically long paintings or calligraphy. Depicting seasonal scenery, poetry, Zen teachings, or classical inscriptions, they embody Japanese aesthetics and philosophy. Both forms exemplify traditional artistic skill and cultural sensibility, expressing the beauty and delicacy of Japan. They can be found in homes, temples, and museums, offering a direct encounter with Japanese history and aesthetics. In this work, I draw from my long-standing practice in film and photography, likening contemporary displays and smartphone screens to byōbu and kakejiku. Reframed through traditional Japanese methods, I present them under the name “Film Craft.” 01 Siren in the Silence Poetic Documentary | 2024 Nature has always sought coexistence. But we have often turned a deaf ear to its call. The “orin” is a traditional Japanese Buddhist bell. When it resonates in nature, it signals a moment to unite hearts and return to purity. Let it ring as a sign of ending conflict. Let it ring as a sign of our transformation. The sound of the orin resounds—calling us to live in harmony with nature. 02 srk Photographic Art｜2016 Sharaku, the enigmatic ukiyo-e artist, was active for only ten months yet produced 145 works before vanishing without a trace. His actor portraits, with boldly distorted features and exaggerated expressions and poses, seem ready to spring into motion. Overflowing with vitality, they have captivated audiences not only in Japan but across the world—myself included. Inspired by his unconventional vision, I created srk, a body of work that reflects on the culture of Sharaku’s era and reinterprets it in the present. This series is presented in four styles, from Volume 1 to Volume 4. 03 Forest Xylophone / NTT DoCoMo brand film | 2011 A massive 44-meter-long xylophone was built using thinned timber from a Japanese forest, where a wooden ball rolls downhill, striking Bach’s Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring. The work relies entirely on physical structure and the natural environment, without any CGI or artificial sound effects. The resonance of the ball and the timber echoes through the forest, conveying a pure poetics of coexistence between humans and nature. More than an advertisement, it is an experiment in design, craftsmanship, and the environment—seamlessly integrating sound, space, ecology, and human perception. Upon release, the project drew worldwide acclaim, winning the Cannes Lions Gold and numerous other international awards, and is celebrated as a landmark case of “emotional design” and sustainable communication.
