“Moving Metaphors: The Genesis of a Space” is a group show featuring works by Shirley Tse, Seungwon Jung, Emily Wang, and Yu-Tzu Peng. These four artists collectively explore the potential of materials, body, spirituality, and temporal transference amidst diverse entities through their distinctive artistic practices. The exhibition examines the unique ways the artists have addressed the notion of ‘movement’, depicting how different aspects connect and create tensions and interactions. It further explores how new narratives are engendered within this dynamic process. Through the interplay and narratives created by these works, the exhibition invites viewers to embark on a gradual journey towards understanding the metaphorical spaces concealed within the works, gradually advancing towards the realm of meaning construction to reshape their comprehension of the world.

ss space space新空間的第一檔展覽連同藝廊開幕將於 6月10日（六）下午兩點舉行。此次聯展以「移動的隱喻：一個空間的生成」為題，匯聚藝術家 謝淑妮（Shirley Tse）、 鄭丞媛（Seungwon Jung）、王慶蘋（Emily Wang）及 彭禹慈（Yu-Tzu Peng）的作品，四位藝術家皆透過各自的創作在眾多差異的事物之中，共同探索物質、身體、精神和時空維度轉移的可能，並從中描述事物如何透過「移動」與他者交織並產生張力，進而在此動態的互動過程中發展出新的敘事。期待透過他們作品的相互對話與敘事，邀請觀者向著作品所隱喻的空間前行，一步步前往意義構築的場域，並在流動的過程中重塑對世界的理解。

Through the works of Emily Wang, Chiu Chen-hung, and Yeh Wei-li, this exhibition suggests a standpoint for audiences to uncover the moments when memories of objects, spaces, and events become solidified and sustained. Also explored are the countless and invisible ideas generated in the artists’ minds: How they are drawn from the artists’ respective upbringings, value system, and intimate memories, then translated and transformed, and finally materialized into visible and tangible forms.

本展覽藉由王慶蘋、邱承宏以及葉偉立的作品，提供觀眾一個視角，掀開他們與物件、空間、記憶而留存、凝結的瞬間。探看藝術家腦中那些數不清、不可見的念頭，是如何地揉入各自的生長背景、價值體系以及私密的記憶倉庫，然後轉譯、闡釋到作品中，成為我們眼前的可見畫面、真實的創作。

Through the suggestive power of color, gesture, and figurative imagery in painting and poetry, I explore the space within duality— the struggle and synergy of opposing forces— in life as in creation. Underlying this exploration is my reflection on the Venusian duality and the symbolisms associated with it— the Moon, femininity, water, fertility, the death and regeneration of nature, and creative energy; the same symbol bears different names such as Ishtar (or Inanna)— queen of heaven and queen of the underworld— the goddess of love and war.

存在於生命與創造裡交互共存的二元力量，彼此拉鋸與交融的張力地帶是我一貫的焦點。

此次我運用繪畫與詩歌裡色彩、筆觸姿態、比喻與意象的象徵力量，探索兩極激盪地帶的新生能量。背後的蘊意，是我對金星（或維納斯）的二元屬性激發人類文明產生的雙重象徵符號之重訪與再塑──陰性、豐饒、愛與戰爭、死亡與再生。
