躺在桌上的物件
Objects Lie on A Table

劇場可以是一幕幕風景畫，
劇場亦可能是一個電影院，
劇場是劇場的時候，可以扮演不同場域，
又可以作為「現場」，展現藝術家、表演者最當下與觀眾共感創作的一刻。

鏡框式劇場，給予觀眾一個角度進入，
不經意間，從一種框遊走到另一種框⋯⋯
尋索的是一種「意狀」 (state of mind)。

《躺在桌上的物件》源自對 Gertrude Stein 提出有關「風景劇場」(landscape theatre) 以及她創作的同名劇本的觸動：視覺的、非敘事式、意狀的。創作從桌上的物件出發，以物象、景象與影像去構作，引發對於繪畫、影像、投映，以至舞台/劇場等不同創作框架的思考。

兩位視覺藝術家初次踏進劇場，邀請了編舞家黃大徽參與創作演出，離開舞蹈的探問，探索另一種的表演狀態。團隊還有越洋參與聲境及音樂創作的著名作曲及聲音藝術家Mark Fell，以及燈光設計師馮國基以光去形塑不同意狀的視覺經驗。

Theatre can be the scenes of landscape paintings.
It can also be a cinema.
When a theatre is a theatre, it can create spaces of illusions.
Theatre can simply be a ‘site of presence’, where artists, performers and audience conceive a work synchronously.  

The proscenium stage provides the audience with a perspective to enter, Inadvertently, from a frame to another; the frames transform, or we transcend…
Realising that the ‘state of mind’ is what we are looking for.

Originated from Gertrude Stein’s notion of ‘landscape theatre’ in which visual, non-narrative and state of mind were highlighted in theatre poetics, this work is inspired by the writer’s lesser-known play Objects Lie on A Table. Simulated by objects that lay on a table, the setting progresses from still lifes to sceneries and cinematic constructions. From there, the journey will go forth to a boundless realm of rethinking painting, moving images, projection, stage, theatre and so on. This theatrical piece is premiered by two visual artists, in collaboration with celebrated choreographer Dick Wong who disputes the nature of dance; the idiosyncratic crossover is going to testify to an alternative state of performance. Also joined by internationally renowned composer and sound artist Mark Fell, together with prolific lighting designer Gabriel Fung, our trailblazing caravan looks forward to welcoming you into our unparallel multi-sensory melting pot.

吳子昆 Ng Tsz-kwan

yucolab創辦人及行政創作總監。於2000年在英國中央聖馬丁藝術設計學院考獲碩士，其後曾出任多間本地大專院校的講師。除本地展覽外，作品亦獲邀於英國、德國、美國、芬蘭、日本、韓國等地展出。藝術創作專注於沉浸式多感官體驗和空間為本裝置，結合非語境零散流動影像構作。從而探究電影媒介以及觀眾接收流動影像之間的關係。其中，他近年創作的「Solitude Cinema」系列，設置自動移動的座椅，在展場空間以特定軌道導航，讓觀眾從特定角度、距離及時間內觀看影像裝置。

Co-founder and Executive Creative Director of yucolab, Kwan has long been devoted to electronic arts and video creations.  With his Master Degree in Fine Art from the Central Saint Martins College of Art in London in 2000, he has been lecturing in multimedia, electronic arts, and design departments of certain universities in Hong Kong.  In addition to numerous local exhibitions, Kwan’s works have been exhibited in UK, Germany, US, Finland, Japan and Korea. In Kwan’s art practice, he has been consistently developing immersive, multisensory and space-oriented experiential installations on decontextualized, fragmented moving images. His works often question and explore the medium of the cinema and perception of viewing. In the Solitude Cinema (series) that he has developed in recent years, it provides a very cinematographic experience, in which viewer sits on an automated moving chair to navigates between the works in the space with specific angles and distances and for specific durations.
