郭芃君

1985 年生於台北,18歲赴英國留學,2007 年畢業於英國倫敦中央聖馬汀藝術學院,平面設計系,目前為全職視覺藝術創作者,定居於台南。

在異地求學的經驗, 讓我感受文化差異的震撼, 因此我開啓了一連串思索自我與他人的創作題材 。對我來說, 創作是一連串的與自己對話的記錄, 這自省式的思考反應了我的身分認同、我身處的環境(人、事、物、社會、文化)的溝通, 有時像詩一樣主觀夾帶濃厚情感, 有時又像在寫論文般處處考據論辯。

 

Ariel, Peng-chun Kuo

Born in Taipei in 1985, Ariel Peng-chun Kuo was trained as a painter since she was 11. Her works are characteristic of eastern feminine aesthetic, very sensitive in emotions and times, and strong in positing core idea into nature. She studied graphics design in Central Saint Martins in London while she was 18. The graphic background made her aware of the communication in cross-cultures. Paradox, identity, cross-culture issues gradually become her main focus in works. Spaces become another feature of her visual language. At the same time, her works has converted into mostly photography during the time she stayed in London. She currently works as a full time artist in Tainan.

生活空間的美學旅程 速寫郭芃君的藝術初航 文/廖仁義

關於Ariel Kuo, Arielleira K., Leira Ouk

畢業返家後,周圍非藝術相關領域的親朋好友總需費力理解我的創作,給予我很大的衝擊,也讓我開始思考藝術與人群的溝通。在台南期間,我開始實驗性地以三種不同身分進行創作: Ariel Kuo、Arielleira K.、Leira Ouk ,三者分別以不同的切入點來摸索或詮釋我想探討的美。三者間我嘗試探索生活美學的可能性, 一種面對自我與周遭反思性的對話,從生命中長成,最終也將回歸至生活中裡的美。期待從概念、抒情、生活多重面向的創作能更親近地與大眾溝通。
