陳昱翰 Chen Yu-Han : 別居 Bathroom Camping
此次個展《別居》源自近年社群媒體上出現的「Bathroom Camping」現象。當人們選擇短暫躲進浴室或廁所,這些原本以生理機能為主要用途的空間,也逐漸轉變為暫時遠離外界壓力、安放情緒與獲得片刻獨處的場所。陳昱翰由此開始思考,當最私密的身體空間同時存在於公共建築之中,個人的界線究竟如何被建立、壓縮,又如何不斷受到他人的介入。
在展覽中,浴室與廁所成為藝術家觀察身體、情感與他人距離的核心場域。小便斗、奶嘴、隔簾、紗網與日常物件經過重新轉譯與排列,使原本熟悉的功能產生錯置。這些作品指向公共空間中難以避免的視線交會、過度靠近的身體距離,以及遮蔽與暴露同時存在的矛盾狀態,也使原本被忽略的尷尬、脆弱與不安逐漸浮現。
「別居」作為展覽名稱,是藝術家對 Bathroom Camping 的中文轉譯與延伸。它並非指向真正的居住或離開,而更接近一種短暫停留的狀態,如同在日常生活中為自己搭起一處臨時營地。人在其中暫時卸下外在防備,讓情緒、身體與空間彼此試探,並重新確認自身與他人之間的距離。
透過《別居》,陳昱翰將日常中對距離、私密性與身體感知的觀察,轉化為一系列空間性的實踐。展覽所關注的並非浴室本身,而是在最私密與最公共之間,那些難以被清楚劃分的界線,以及人在其中不斷尋找自身位置的過程。
Bathroom Camping takes its starting point from the social-media phenomenon in which people retreat to bathrooms or toilets for moments of solitude. Spaces primarily associated with bodily functions are temporarily transformed into places of withdrawal, offering brief relief from external pressure and a provisional space in which emotions can be contained. From this phenomenon, Chen considers how privacy is constructed, compressed, and repeatedly interrupted when intimate bodily spaces are embedded within public architecture.
Throughout the exhibition, bathrooms and toilets become central sites through which the artist examines bodily awareness, emotional states, and interpersonal distance. Urinals, pacifiers, curtains, mesh, and familiar domestic elements are displaced from their expected functions and reconfigured into spatial encounters. Through these gestures, Chen draws attention to forced proximity, unavoidable exchanges of gaze, and the simultaneous presence of concealment and exposure within shared environments.
The Chinese title Bie Ju extends the idea of “Bathroom Camping” into a broader condition of temporary inhabitation. Rather than suggesting permanent residence, it describes a momentary pause between arrival and departure: a provisional state in which one withdraws from external expectations, lowers one’s defenses, and renegotiates the relationship between body, emotion, and space.
Through Bathroom Camping, Chen transforms subtle experiences of discomfort, intimacy, and spatial negotiation into a series of visual and spatial propositions. The exhibition ultimately looks beyond the bathroom itself, focusing instead on the unstable boundaries between the private and the public, and on the ways individuals continually search for a place in which the self can momentarily settle.
