聽城市的故事，看城市的風景。藝術家蕭北辰、許旆誠、廖震平將於05/07~06/01新苑藝術的聯展中，與我們一起在失格的城市中，尋找一個屬於自己歸屬的城市角落。熟悉而陌生的景象
乘坐高鐵看窗外的景像，因快速閃逝而模糊。這種速度造成的模糊，在視覺及心理上產生了一種莫名的殊離感。藝術家蕭北辰將這種意象，以晦暗不明、曖昧不清的狀態呈現；將這種影像，層層包裹於清澈透明的材質之中。
臨時性的遊牧設施
藝術家許旆誠則觀察到城市中流動廁所、臨時搭置的帳棚、鐵皮圍牆、臨時組合屋等。這些在日常地景中所出現的臨時性裝置，其實充斥在我們所處的生活場域之中。這些設施短暫地存在，然後被拆解之後又在另一個地方重新搭組重生，如同遊牧般的遷徙。而這似乎也和都市人的組成結構存在著遷徙性格有著相似的命運。
城市邊緣的空間
城市中往往不易令人察覺的，也許是橋下的片斷空間、是人跡罕至的河堤，
在紛亂的城市映象中，這些景象也許只被人們存放在知覺的邊緣區裡。
藝術家廖震平試圖透過自己的身體、眼、手等協調作用去與過渡性的空間影像對峙、將個人的主觀情感壓抑與制約，去尋找這些冷調的、邊緣的景象中的微弱訊息，在知覺的邊緣區裡釋出溫度。
城市失格，邀您一起擁抱每個城市的角落、失落與美好。

LOST IN THE CITY
On the basis of the vulgar locations which we might pass by in our everyday life, the three artists – Shiau Bei-Chen, Hsu Pei-Chen, and Liao Cheng-Ping – create a grandeur portrayal of the selfness in the group exhibition
If we map out the contours of the city we are living in, what will be the memories of those locations we are witnessing? In the city, the perceived concepts of time and space are transforming at an uncontrollable speed – which is so fast that we can only capture those vague images passing by while we take the MRT train, while we drive a car, while we take the bus, or even while we silently sit in the café. Those flashing images are silenced for that their noisy sounds have already been separated by the windows. As a replacement, the windows reveal another level of reality – the image of "us" in reflection. Such an ambiguous membrane obstructs the contact between the external surroundings and human beings but meanwhile it ironically makes it possible for us to "look into" space on the other side of the window. The dual-existence of the external world and the selves in Shiau Bei-Chen’s works are delicately transformed into the obscure and ambiguous images kept in the transparent material layer by layer.
However, what might happen if the duration of vision in our gaze becomes a spatial storage of any certain location? In Hsu Pei-Chen’s paintings, the temporal nomadic facilities such as mobile toilets, tent, iron fence, temporary housing, and many other temporary installations existing in the ordinary landscape all together intervene in the site structure. Some of them are forgotten and deserted at the urban fringe, while some of them are dismantled and are again fabricated at another site. In their nomadic life as fated, the temporary installations seem to be collaged into the artificial site, creating the heterogeneous scenery – which perfectly describes Hsu Pi-Chen’s perception of the disqualified city in terms of time and space.
Those sites at the urban fringe may be hard to be captured by us. Most of the time, we “look at” the fragmentized space under the bridge or the unfrequented riverbank, but we seldom “look into” those locations. Our memories of them are only stored in the margin of our perception. Liao Chen-Ping thus intends to create a conflict against the transitional spaces through the coordination of his physical body. Through his eyes and his hands, Liao suppresses and conditions the subjective emotion of the individuals in search of any feeble message hidden behind those marginalized images. By warming the messages up, the three artists demonstrate the definition of visualization in both form and structure through their individual will.
City – a space without any definite boundary – is returning to its own disqualification in the exhibition
