回眸 光‧陰‧慢─張文靜的靜謐視界
文：蔡獻友

序幕

　　凝視，短暫而寧靜，用遠視保持距離，一如旅行所見的天際線的風景，那無意識間攝入瞳間的反影，安撫著波盪的情緒，起起伏伏、錯錯落落，直到和緩而平息…！於是，看見光，看見雲彩，看見天際，及一切生活的日常與經歷…！

生命是應該停駐在某個值得停駐的時光與處所，然後可以好好地端詳自身，就好像可以在美好的景緻裡好好的欣賞著美麗的花朵和風景，安然且自在！生活是應該在日常與經歷中，好好的保留些許空白，以讓情感塗抹，為貧乏的日子增添色彩！生命在流動，生活在流逝，這些微小的渴求，應該不算多…！

於是，重新整裝出發，回眸流逝的光陰，拾回曾經擱置的畫筆彩盤，隱身於光陰的縫隙之中，編寫劇碼，流轉故事，側身剪影，寄語傳情…！於是，一幅幅的畫作，如超現實意象的拼貼顯現，如詩歌般的飄逸盎然，生活有了姿色，生命有了曲調，故事劇碼，也正在流傳…！

零時潛旅的迴圈密碼

　　登上編碼的車廂，鐵軌與輪子輕哼超越現實的進行曲，裝備著昔日英雄般的氣概，塗裝著令人驕傲的「黑」，就像是通往夢境的列車，霎時消逝在潛意識的時空中，霎時又出現在現實的眼前，就像潛旅於超現實和現實間的航道，在指針零時的時刻上…！

指針零時是昨日也是今日，是天色漸黑也是天色漸白，是日也是夜的共時拼貼…！指針零時是終點也是起點，是時間與空間的過渡轉換，蘊含著變動、漂浪與定錨。其實，每一個指針所指的時刻，都是如「零時」，就像2019年歷經10個月定時拍攝完成的〈6：20的天空〉之影像紀錄與拼貼作品，時間彷彿是靜止的、凝固的、沒有盡頭也沒有開始，是迴圈密碼，是處於不變的永恆變動中的宇宙生命韻律…！

獨處‧單音的旋律

　　作品在彷彿暫停的時間中沈思，因疫情無情的蔓延，熟悉的事物正逐漸崩解，旅行不再，只留獨處…！時間多了，心單純了，悸動的心靈絃歌，只留「單音」…！窗，成了觀看世界的景，在想像中幻化為戲劇的舞台。舞台框景有了，大地為檯板，藍天為幕，日、月、星為場燈，大幕開啟，一幕幕的人、天情事，都在心靈的沉思、投射與寫照中，搬上舞台…！

2021年疫情中所完成的〈沈思〉系列和〈窗〉系列，都是在如此的背景中所完成！〈沈思〉系列和〈窗〉系列畫面上都有一團雲朵，甚至只有一朵簡約的白雲，這雲朵已然成為畫面中主要的視覺焦點，它忽兒在窗外，忽兒在窗內，像極飛舞在風中的蒲公英，帶著夢想，航飛在天際之間，等待夢想的實現…！窗外的景色多變，忽兒晴空萬里，朗風徐徐；忽兒風雲變色，陰晴難定！或有時，日落月升，星光滿佈，充滿了心靈無盡的想像…！放把座椅，獨賞，聆聽內在的旋律，在單音的共鳴中…！

慢‧光‧陰

　　是光與陰交會之隙，「黑」的舞台，揭開了宇宙的序幕，白光未登場，虛寂空無，形影未分，內藏大化蘊生，靜極而動，等待出光劃開，天地露白。作品〈寂境〉系列直逼黑幕與黎明的縫隙，挑起天際的黑幕，讓昏沉的地平線微露曙光…！文靜說：「〈寂境〉系列作品沒有艷俗的色彩，一塵不染、清靜淡雅。觀者往往在不知不覺中被引入了莫蘭迪（Giorgio Morandi）純淨而神秘的心靈深處。」這天際黑幕的揭開，幾乎看不到時間的波動，極緩、極慢，好似每揭開一絲分毫，都暗示著時空的流動，好似都驚動著正從沉睡中甦醒的生命，從冷凜到微溫，從幽玄的漆黑中，灑落光絲，喚醒世界…！

極愛這種跟急迫的生活步調相反差的「慢」，因為「慢」，一切的動作可以得到舒緩，並得到注視與領受；因為「慢」，心靈可以得到沉澱與澄明，生命的流動得以安住…！原來，「光」與「陰」的流動是生活，也是生命的節奏，在「慢」的宇宙調性中，相遇、相映，且合一…！


Glance back – Light, Shadow and Slowness
The tranquil prospect of Chang Wen-Ching

Curator: Tsai Hsien-Yiu

Opening

Gaze, though short, is peaceful. Long perspective allows me to keep distance from what I saw, just like the scenery on the skyline during my travels. A reflected view goes into my eyes unintentionally, but calms and soothes my unsettled mood: from up and down, from fluctuation to peace. Finally, I see light and colour through cloud, across the skyline. I am also able to observe my daily practices and experiences.

Life should be able to take a break at a particular moment and space, if the moment and space are worthy. In so doing, we are able to reflect in ease and peace. Emptiness should be persevered in daily life, because it allows feelings to add colours. Such desires should be rewarded in the flow of life, because they are humble things.

Therefore, I reorganise myself and prepare to depart. I look back to the past and try to re-capture the lost time with my own interpretations and stories … I want to share them. I do so through paintings: some are as surreal as a collage, some as abundantly elegant as poetry. Colours and melodies are added into life. Tales and stories are passed on.


Timeless deep travel, monophonic tunes

The window itself becomes the view, access to the world; and yet it also transforms into a theatre within our imagination. In paused time, it seems like works of art are out for us to contemplate. Only aloneness is left as heart turns simple. And only monophonic tunes remain in the throbbing heart. The earth becomes the platform, while the blue sky is the curtain: sun, moon and stars are lights. When the curtain is opened, pictures come one after another, reflected in deep thought and projected on the stage.

There is a cloud in every picture in the “Meditation” and “Windows” series. Sometimes the cloud is outside the windows, sometimes inside. The cloud carries the dream and flies along the skyline, waiting for the dream to come true. The scenery outside the windows embraces endless imagination, self-appreciation, and the resonance of internal monophony.


Slowness, Light, and Shadow

Where light and shadow meet, it is at the point of ‘black’, where the curtain of the universe opens, in complete silence and emptiness. At this moment there is no separation between shape and shadow; only a wait for light to break through sky and separate it from earth. The works of the “Silence” series are made to express the first light of day. When the dark curtain of the sky is lifted, time is not detected as it moves so slowly; and yet every subtle change indicates a shift in time and space, from coldness to gentle warmness. The falling, hair-like light wakes up the world.

There is a deep love of ‘slowness’ in daily life, a pace which is completely the opposite of hurry. In embracing slowness, the soul gains an opportunity to calm and settle; the movement and flow of life can be oriented. It turns out that the flow of light and shadow is not only part of daily practice, but also determines the pace of life. In the universal tempo of slowness, light and shadow meet and merge together, reflecting each other and eventually becoming one.
