前 言


对于大陆上的人来说,孤悬大海之南的岛屿,既是烟瘴荒远、贬谪之地的热带边疆,又是香木翠鸟、珠兰遍地的风下异域,海山、椰林、渔家、宝藏甚至海盗构成了关于这个岛屿色彩浓烈的奇幻传说。虽然自汉朝以来,就有汉人迁移到被称为“珠崖”的海南岛上的一些飞地定居,但是黎、瑶、疍、苗、回,还有更早期说着泰语系语言的原住居民及过客,其复杂的族群流动对于习惯陆地思维的人来说,难于想象在浪涛汹涌、风云变幻的海岛上到底经历着怎样的日常。
最初,在听到翁奋说起他的海岛乡村计划时,我也充满了好奇和陌生感。岛屿和海洋对于当代艺术创作而言,实在是极富于想象和创造力的混沌场域。但在他讲述岛上村落传统生活和民间仪式时,却察觉这与我在粤西及福建的田野里听到的故事很相像。而后他拿出家中族谱,谱中序言记录其始迁祖“於宋紹興由莆田入瓊”则证实了判断。他又说起女儿们无法进入族谱记录而遭遇的认同困境,并从2007年开始对故乡有了“自觉”,我也逐渐从他这些年的艺术实践和视觉作品切实进入到他的问题情境中。
“观海听涛”是海南岛文昌市泰山村翁奋老家宅院围墙上的一幅石刻,旁边还有一篇《泰山赋》,讲述翁家自南宋年间结伴迁徙至今在泰山村六百多年的生活经历,“挖渠排涝、垦荒种地”“下海捕鱼、养畜养鸡”“台风卷地、浩劫无遗”“冬去春来、从头做起”,这些历史与现实的存在如密码般成为理解他“骑墙”“看海”系列摄影最好的注脚。一个潜在而无声的观看者从这些摄影背后显形,甚至我以为他对极开阔视角和无限天际线的塑造,也是自幼岛屿生活所面对无止尽海面的视觉惯习。他作品中那些自然的退却与人造物无限蚕食,则能让观看者通感身居四面环水岛屿上的人退无可退的困境。卫星发射中心的建设,要夺走故乡泰山村一半的土地,因太空拓殖而产生的挤压,让地球也萎缩为岛屿,而原本已生活在局促土地上的人,感受到更真实且无望的紧迫感,本能地在汹涌的虚无中寻找着力点。
翁奋的创作从绘画到摄影、装置、影像甚至参与式艺术实践,媒介只是服务他思考表达的途径。此次展览,更像个倒叙的故事,呈现他自2007年以来围绕海岛乡村家园消逝问题的摄影和在地艺术项目,在“天地海人神”之间,记录他与族人对家园祖灵都可能消散的无所适从,对现代城市膨胀侵蚀的无力与沉默,对岛屿众生不公平状况的担忧及反问。而在记录与表达之外,他的家人帮忙编织几近失传的“子叶壁”椰席,制作手打咖啡黑以及从海南带到新加坡又留传回故乡的翁氏海南鸡饭,这些动人之物在海洋国土与周边的流转变迁也与岛上移民的历史故事同构。他在展览中精心搭建了部分的故乡,希望来自海岛的图像、影像、植物、动物和矿物,作为他过往作品的前传,记录他多年的观察和对不确定性的思考。疫情三年,世事无常,谁又不是身处某种孤岛之上,浪潮起落间,观海听涛既是家族传承的日常,也是直面未来的想象。

Preface


For people on the mainland, the island, which hangs south of the sea, is the tropical frontier of desolation and relegation, also an exotic place with fragrant woods and birds, affluent pearls and flora. Seamounts, coconut groves, fishermen, treasures even pirates form the fancy legends about this island. Although the Han people have been settling in enclaves on Hainan known as “Zhu Ya” since the Han Dynasty, the Li, Yao, Dan, Miao, Hui people, even the early aboriginal and transients with Thai-speaking languages have already lived there. The complex movement of ethnic group is difficult for people used to a land-based mindset to imagine what kind of daily life is really experienced on the rough and stormy islands.
Initially, when I heard Weng Fen talk about his island rural project, I was also filled with curiosity and sense of unfamiliarity. For contemporary art creation, islands and oceans are indeed chaotic fields of imagination and creativity. As he recounted the traditional rural life and folk rituals of the island, I have perceived a resemblance to the stories that I heard in the fields of western Guangdong and Fujian. He then took out his family genealogy, the preface on which reads that his ancestors "moved from Putian to Hainan during the reign of Emperor Shaoxing in the Song Dynasty (1131-1162)" that proves my judgment. Weng also mentioned the identity dilemma encountered by his daughters due to their inability to access genealogical records, and his “self-consciousness” of his hometown have sprout since 2007. Gradually, his artistic practice and visual works which have lasted for years, have effectively brought me into the field of his problems.
"Gazing the sea and waves in Taishan Village" is a stone carving on the fence of Weng's old family house in Taishan Village, Wenchang City, Hainan. Besides, the article entitled "Taishan Ode", tells the life experience of the Weng’s family in Taishan Village for more than 600 years since they migrated together during the Southern Song Dynasty. “Digging drains and draining floods, reclaiming the land”, “Fishing in the sea, raising livestock”, "The land swept by typhoons and the devastation", "Starting from scratch when winter comes and spring comes", these historical and realistic existences become the best footnote to understand his series of photographs "sitting on the wall" and "Staringing at the sea" like a code. A potential and silent viewer emerges from behind these photographs, even as I believe extremely wide-ranging perspectives and infinite skyline in his works are a visual habit of gazing endless seas on the island life since childhood. The retreat of nature and infinite encroachment of man-made objects in his works allow viewers to feel the plight of people who live on islands that they have nowhere to retreat. Due to the construction of a satellite launch center, half of Taishan Village have been requisitioned just like space colonization has shrunk the earth into an island. Villagers feel a more real, hopeless sense of urgency and instinctively look for a focus in turbulent nothingness.
Weng Fen's creation ranges from painting to photography, installation, video and even participatory art practice, while the medium merely a way for him to express thoughts. This exhibition is more like a flashback story, presenting his photographic and in situ art projects on the disappearance of rural homes since 2007. Focusing on "heaven, earth, sea, human and god", it records his clan's disorientation at the possible dissipation of their ancestral spirits, powerlessness and silence about the expansion of modern cities, concerns and questions about the inequitable conditions of living beings on the island. In addition to documentation and expression, Weng's family weave nearly lost coconut coir mats, make hand-blended black coffee and Weng's Hainanese chicken rice, which was brought from Hainan to Singapore and then passed on to his homeland. The transition of these moving objects in surrounding area is isomorphic with the historical story of immigrants. In the exhibition, Weng elaborately constructed part of his homeland, hoping the images, videos, plants, animals and minerals from Hainan will serve as a prequel to his past works, documenting his observations and reflections on uncertainty over the years. Three years into the epidemic, the world is unpredictable and everyone is like living on some kind of isolated island. Between the ebb and flow of the tide, gazing the sea and waves is not only a daily part of family 's heritage, but also a straightforward way of imagining the future.
