三影堂摄影艺术中心3.0space将于4月1日至4月30日举办麦扬个展《好! Say-so》。本次展览由李燕茹策展，展出麦扬多个装置系列代表作品。展览将探讨服装与穿着者之间的关系。在麦扬的作品中，服装将不再只被视为具有其原本功能性和商业价值的物品，而是将被赋予更多的象征意义，呈现出不同的身体形态和社会特性。这一形式展现了群体生活中不同个体之间的普遍性和差异性，并引起对机械性重复生活中的“好”的重新思考和定义。
Shhh!(嘘!)系列之一Untitled(无题)系列之一
Shhh！（嘘！）和Untitled（无题）是麦扬自2019年以来长期创作的两个系列作品。其中，Shhh！（嘘！）系列作品是在填充服装的袖口处缝合连接，形成一个闭环，并在表面上喷涂油漆。Untitled（无题）则是由不同的颜色、不同款式的单个填充服装组成。艺术家通过观察不同着装来思考服装对穿着者的限制和掌控。在这两组作品中，服装脱离了原本的功能，变成了膨胀的形体，并以“身体”的形式呈现，让作品获得了更加自由的姿态和独立性。
怀抱（Hold Me in Your Arms）创作于2021年，此作品是麦扬对校园集体生活的回应。艺术家使用100件同款校服进行填充、连接和缝合，形成一种相互穿插、从上到下的垂挂形态。作品展现了个体被剥夺特性后与同化的群体之间微妙交织的关系，既有服从又有叛逆，既有交缠又有间隙。
UpRise（站起来）系列作品以批量生产的服装为素材，看似有序地进行堆积与叠加，同时穿插其他元素（如椅子、木棍、球、护栏等），组合之间暗示着一种抗争力和不稳定性。该系列作品的灵感来自艺术家麦扬的情绪爆发，作品的诞生不仅是一种结果产物，也记录了麦扬的整个行为和创作过程。
当艺术不再局限于平面，而是以立体形式呈现在展览空间中；当艺术家通过再次创造来赋予物体思想；当作品的材料来源于生活，打破艺术与生活之间的界限；此时，美学将成为一种追求自由和激进的手段：从必须依靠身体填充的限制与约束中解放出来，成为“Unbodied Society”。

Three Shadows Photography Art Centre 3.0space is pleased to present 好！(Say-so) from April 1st-30nd, a solo exhibition by Yang Mai, curated by Yanru Li. The exhibition will feature Mai's body of work and explore the relationship between apparel and wearer. In his works, clothing transcends its mundane function or commercial value and assumes a profound symbolic significance, evoking diverse physical forms and social expressions. This reveals the universality and diversity of individuals in group living and prompts a reimagination and renegotiation of the "好" in our shaped and repeated forms of life.“好”(Hao, a Chinese character that has multiple meanings, it can be referred to “Yes”, “Good”, “OK” or used as an adjective to describe something as "fine" or "satisfactory". It can be also used ironically in response to a situation where one's freedom of expression is restricted.)
From series Shhh! (嘘 !)
From series Untited(无题)Since 2019, Mai has created two ongoing series of works: Shhh! (嘘!) and Untitled (无题). In the Shhh! (嘘!) series, garments are stitched together at the openings of the sleeves and threaded through one another to form a closed loop, which is then painted on the surface. The Untitled (无题) series consists of individual stuffed clothing of different colors and styles. By recreating various forms of garments, the artist reflects on the restrictions and control that clothing can impose on the wearer. In both works, the clothing is separated from its utilitarian function, transformed into outrageous assemblages, and presented in new body-like forms, allowing the works to assume a more liberated and independent stance.怀抱 (Hold Me in Your Arms) was created in 2021 by Mai in response to the collective experience of conforming to societal norms. The artist used 100 identical school uniforms to create a hanging structure through filling, connecting, and stitching. The work symbolically reflects the fragility of our society and stages the paradoxical coexistence of conformity and rebellion that we are living in.UpRise (站起来) uses mass-produced clothing as its medium, stacked and layered with other elements such as chairs, branches, balls, and fences, implying a sense of resistance and insecurity. Inspired by the artist's emotional outburst, these works not only represent a creative output but also serve as documentation of his entire artistic process.Many garments begin a new life within Mai's reimagining operations, which are not limited by physical constraints. This exhibition continues Yang Mai's commitment to proposing aesthetics as a means towards radical freedom and creating an "unbodied society".· Artist ·
