★【 #新展預告 】何佳真《線頭的故事 : 從最初，走向未來》
◎ 展覽自述
三十年前於英國留學期間完成的版畫作品，因緣際會封存至今，未曾完整公開。回望那段創作歷程，最感念的人，是我的指導教授Ian Cloverson。在整理作品時，突然發現尋20年多的創作線索，原來線頭一直握在自己的手上，它不是版畫技法，而是回望三十年後，重新找到自己創作生命的起點，也重新理解版畫對於我的意義。當一件件作品再次攤開眼前，才發現，三十年來改變的是媒材，不曾改變的是對土地、人文、生命與歷史的關注。我的創作隨著人生不同階段，轉化為不同的形式與語言，卻始終延續著藝術的創作本質。
從早期作品聚焦於女性、性別與社會議題，2014年加入當代藝術團體「魚刺客」 (Fishsnipers)後，開始走訪台灣海洋與島嶼，以踏查累積創作能量，將關注延伸至土地、港都、歷史與文化記憶。如今重新回到版畫，才理解這些年的創作本質，其實始終與早年的版畫思維彼此呼應，過去印的不只是圖像，也是時間。
這次展覽，不只是三十年前版畫作品的重現，更是一段創作軌跡的重新整理與再出發。期待透過這一次回望，不僅重新認識自己的創作源頭，也讓版畫重新成為未來創作持續延伸的重要養分與起點，它不只是回顧，而是版畫將再次回到我的創作生命之中。(文. 何佳真)
▋ About the Exhibition
The prints I created while studying in the United Kingdom thirty years ago were, through a series of circumstances, packed away and preserved until today, never having been presented publicly in their entirety. Looking back on that period of my creative life, the person I remain most grateful to is my advisor, Ian Cloverson. As I began sorting through these works, I suddenly realized that the creative thread I had been searching for over the past twenty years had always been in my own hands. This thread is not a matter of printmaking technique. Rather, after thirty years, I have rediscovered the starting point of my creative life and come to understand anew what printmaking means to me. As I unfolded these works one by one, I realized that what has changed over the past thirty years is the medium; what has remained unchanged is my concern for the land, humanity, life, and history. As my life has moved through different stages, my work has taken on different forms and languages, yet the fundamental nature of my artistic practice has remained the same.
My early works focused primarily on women, gender, and social issues. After joining the contemporary art collective Fishsnipers in 2014, I began traveling and conducting fieldwork along Taiwan’s coasts and islands. These journeys fueled creative energy and broadened my concerns to include the land, harbor cities, history, and cultural memory. Now, returning to printmaking, I have come to understand that the essence of my practice over these years has always echoed the thinking embedded in my earliest prints. What I printed in the past was not merely images but time itself.
This exhibition is therefore more than a reappearance of prints created thirty years ago. It is also a reexamination of my creative trajectory and a new point of departure. Through this act of looking back, I hope not only to rediscover the origins of my artistic practice but also to allow printmaking to become an important source of nourishment and a new starting point for the work ahead. This exhibition is not simply a retrospective. It marks the return of printmaking to my creative life. (Text by Ho Chia-Cheng)
