活動介紹
記憶中小時候在補習班上課的畫面,以及電影駭客任務(Matrix)與其他科幻電影裡人與機器接合的樣貌,啟發了我創作這一系列作品,以刻畫出台灣升學主義掛帥的教育體制下,學生如同工廠生產線上的產物,在考試框架中被迫裝填著相同的知識。
這樣不合時宜、剝奪學生自我覺醒與個體性的集體填鴨式教育,理應是歷史遺物,卻很弔詭的仍存於現今的教育環境,持續剝奪學生們的自我及創造力。本系列作品以人受機器嵌入、控制的科幻風格,試著呈現學生處於這種體制中,無奈而被迫地背誦著無盡的標準答案、數理公式、成語和詩詞。
「人類」這系列作品想表達必須對這種教育方式積極改革的大聲疾呼,期望新的體制能為未來世代培育出獨立的思考者、創作者、及實踐者,以因應多元且多變的世界。
明年即將畢業,本次的畫展也為我自己的中學教育及藝術學習旅程留下了一個里程碑。展望未來,這一系列作品是我期許在未來人生旅程中對這樣的改革做出貢獻所踏出的第一步!
Inspired by The Matrix and other science fiction films, the series depicts my experience growing up both within and adjacent to the industrialised education system of Taiwan.
Something that should be an artifact of the past, the anachronistic system still in place today strips students of their creativity and identity. The series attemps to capture the frustrations and struggles of those trapped within the oppressive system, forced to memorize an endless stream of formulas, idioms, and poems.
With the education system in desperate need for reform, the series Human is a desperate cry for change that hopes to fill our future generations with a society of thinkers, creators, and makers.
As I am graduating soon, the exhibition marks the end of my secondary education , reflecting on my long journey in both art and education. While the struggle towards a better future is far from over, I believe that this series is the first of many steps towards change.
呂威慶 Jeremy Lu
生於2003年。有志成為一位工程師、藝術家及設計師,喜好有關電腦機械鍵盤的一切事物。自幼即對藝術有著強烈的興趣,時常在課本上塗鴉、畫上喜歡的科幻電影角色及場景,自此展開他藝術學習之旅,全心投入素描、水彩、雕塑等創作。
除藝術外,在學校他喜歡物理及電腦科學,希望能成為一名具備創新能力、開發新科技的工程師。高中時期發現,透過設計及開發各式各樣創新的產品以解決大大小小問題,他能把對藝術及工程的熱愛同時融合在一起。
在課業之餘,他常以他喜歡的人物角色或電影主題設計新的電腦機械鍵盤及按鍵。最新系列創作「人類」的風格深受他對工程及科幻小說兩者熱愛的影響,並採用這樣的元素來呈現他對教育改革的呼籲。
Jeremy Lu, born in 2003, is an aspiring engineer, artist, and designer; he loves all things mechanical keyboards. Growing up, he always had a passion for art and started doodling in his textbooks, drawing characters and scenes from his favourite sci-fi films.
From that moment forward, he threw himself wholeheartedly into art, creating sketches, paintings, and sculptures throughout his journey. Alongside art, he enjoyed physics and computer science at school and wanted to be an engineer to innovate and create new technologies. In highschool, he realised he could fuse his passion for both art and engineering through design, developing various innovative product designs that solved problems big and small.
In his free time, he is usually found designing new mechanical keyboards and keycaps, often inspired by his favourite characters and movies. His latest series Human draws influence from his love of engineering and science fiction, using elements from both to call for educational reform.
