關於
雷悌,1982年出生於中華民國台灣高雄市,在施點爆竹的祭典中發現爆竹繪畫藝術的可能性,開始實驗摸索爆竹藝術創作。爆竹在燃燒爆破後所留下的痕跡相當獨特,不但具有獨特的美感,亦能代表著中華歷史文化意涵的傳承。在長期的實踐與美籍妻子的鼓勵之下,雷悌專攻爆竹爆破創作,並不斷探討藝術內涵之表現。至今發展出三個主要創作系列,並每年舉辦個展及聯展,期許以獨特的創作手法與當代的創作觀點,啟發社會人心。
中國人發明爆竹至今已有1400餘年,爆竹又稱炮仗、爆竿、紙炮仔、鞭炮,主要原理是利用火藥燃燒導致空氣受熱、瞬間令紙捲膨脹所引發的爆炸,而產生出巨大聲響、光點與煙霧;追溯歷史中爆竹的運用大多用於節日、慶典、婚禮、宗教活動上,特別於中國農曆新年期間使用占最大比例,其功用主要以驅邪及祝賀為主,流傳至今世界各地只要有華人的地方就有燃燒爆竹的習俗存在。 爆竹繪畫的主要原理是利用爆竹燃燒瞬間所產生的爆破、烙印以及煙霧於平面媒材之上所產生痕跡,利用控制爆竹燃燒與絕緣隔絕的原理來進行繪畫創作,因爆竹繪畫操作繁複以及爆破的不可預期性導致失敗率較高,讓創作有著相當的困難度,但也因此每件作品都是獨一無二的。
雷悌目前創作議題分為三大類:
一、新中華文化系列 - 以中華文化為核心結合西方技術與思維,以不同視野重新表現出當代文化的新樣貌,並重新審視自我文化與西方差異,重新詮釋新中華文化與台灣文化。
二、LEIPOP系列 - 以普普藝術(POP ART)的入世精神,觀察當今時下時事,以詼諧、諷刺、趣味的方式呈現當下時代中的時事議題,以記錄者、評論者的角色為創作出發點。
Lei Ti, was born in 1982 in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, ROC. He was inspired by a traditional Taiwanese ceremony, where he got the idea of applying firecrackers to art. Burned firecrackers leave quite special marks. They are beautiful, and represent unique historical and cultural implications of Chinese heritage. After long-term practice and with his American wife's encouragement, Lei Ti made up his mind to specialize in firecracker exploding works and continue to explore his own style of art. He has developed three main series and held solo exhibitions and group exhibitions every year, hoping to inspire people with his unique approaches and contemporary views.
The Chinese invented firecrackers more than 1,400 years ago. They have many different names and types. The main principle is that during gunpowder combustion, air heats and expands instantaneously, which causes the cardboard tube to explode and burn with huge sound, light and smoke. Tracing the history of firecrackers, they are mostly used for festivals, celebrations, weddings, religious activities, and at Chinese New Year. The main function is celebration and protection against evil. Firecrackers have spread around the world and as long as there are Chinese people, the custom of burning firecrackers will go on. The main principle of firecracker painting is to use the instant blast of combustion to brand a media plane with fire and smoke. Firecracker painting is achieved by controlled burning of firecrackers and by using isolation and insulation principles. Because of the complexity of these principles, the unpredictability of firecracker painting operations leads to high failure rates. There is a considerable degree of difficulty in creation, but because of this the work is also unique.
Lei Ti’s creative issues are currently divided into three categories:
(1) The New Chinese Culture Series - This series envisions a new way of showing contemporary Chinese culture. Examines Eastern and Western differences. Re-interprets the new Chinese and Taiwanese culture.
(2) LEIPOP Series - POP ART style is concerned with the world spirit. Looks at current events with humor and irony, a fun way to present the issues of the current era. Uses critical views as a starting point.
