展覽預(yù)告 | “表象之下的幻境”張丹陶瓷藝術(shù)作品展

表象之下的幻境

她不是在做陶瓷，是用陶瓷畫畫。

一個(gè)顏色涂上去是那樣，但經(jīng)過上千度燒出來(lái)就完全不同了。可能是紅，可能是黑，誰(shuí)也不知道。

就是這不確定性吸引了她。她說(shuō)，除了不確定性，也要有一些確定性，讓它們達(dá)到平衡。

屢次仔細(xì)端詳正在講話的她，試圖看出她的年齡，屢次都失敗了。

有些人，就是無(wú)法被看出實(shí)際的年齡。

作為一直講話、被觀察的那個(gè)人，她同時(shí)也觀察著對(duì)方，而且會(huì)突然地提出一些問題，不過話題很快會(huì)回到她所癡迷的創(chuàng)作上面。好像對(duì)生活中其它方面的關(guān)注——比如與人相處、比如食物——都只是她在工作中偶然走神的結(jié)果，勉為其難地停留一下下。

你以為她無(wú)所謂，她卻偏偏很周到，特地帶我們?nèi)タ撮_窯，帶我們探訪景德鎮(zhèn)的老作坊，甚至周到得事無(wú)巨細(xì)都要囑咐——靠這邊走，這樣拿瓷板，這樣推車，從這個(gè)角度這樣拍我，去這間咖啡館買咖啡，在那個(gè)座位吃午飯……

她說(shuō)著說(shuō)著會(huì)激動(dòng)起來(lái)，眼睛發(fā)亮，我甚至以為她要哭了。關(guān)于藝術(shù)，關(guān)于生命，關(guān)于過去，還有現(xiàn)在她所愛的景德鎮(zhèn)。

聽她說(shuō)話 ，也沒有什么實(shí)際的意義，并不是從A導(dǎo)出B這樣的邏輯。在她說(shuō)話的時(shí)候，你其實(shí)可以放任自己去想象——有個(gè)少年歡快地在草原上吹一支自制的木笛，金色的陽(yáng)光炫目，露水還殘留在草葉的尖端。不需要神靈，不需要辯論，更不需要戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)……世上一切，抵不得這清晨最芬芳的一刻。

作品全堆在工作室里，無(wú)論滿意的不滿意的，瓷板、瓷片、大大小小的瓷瓶、杯子、小型的雕塑，堆滿各個(gè)角落，屋外的露臺(tái)上還能看到工作失敗的殘局。

坐在那里一邊聽她講一邊反復(fù)掃視周圍的作品，有些本來(lái)沒有注意到的，也逐漸變得吸引人——那些顏色、肌理，和形態(tài)上的微妙轉(zhuǎn)折，在用一種你沒聽過的語(yǔ)言小聲唱頌，里面潛藏的意義會(huì)在不知不覺間傳達(dá)到觀者的內(nèi)心。

同為一個(gè)創(chuàng)作者，由衷地羨慕她的創(chuàng)作狀態(tài)。

她卻說(shuō)：其實(shí)我覺得創(chuàng)作不創(chuàng)作也沒關(guān)系，過好自己的日子最重要。

可她連一間廚房都沒有。

她所謂的過日子就是每天摸著那些瓷板、陶胚，琢磨該用什么釉色，燒出來(lái)會(huì)是什么樣子；就是不停地嘗試，不停地失敗，在時(shí)間和生命堆積起來(lái)失敗的廢墟中找到耀眼的珍寶。

就像詩(shī)人找到一句恰如其分的詩(shī)。

A Fantasy World Beneath the Surface

Ceramic is her paint.

After the extreme heat process, which could be over 1,000 degrees Celsius, the color could vary in the most unexpected ways.

The incoherence attracts her, and with a drop of certainty to balance it.

One will not be able to tell her age just by looking at her. There are those who lives beyond the scope of time.

She observes, and is being observed during conversations. Chitchat pops up here and there, but eventually her topic will warp itself back to the trajectory of creativity.

Just when you suspect her of being careless, she shows her hospitality by showing you the most exotic corners in Jingde Zhen. She is specific about every detail, as far as which side of the street should one be walking on, how to hold the ceramic plate, how to push the cart, from which angle her picture should be taken, and which cafe and seat in a restaurant is preferable.

Her enthusiasm builds up, her eyes lit up when talking about art, life and the past of her beloved Jingde Zhen.

It’s not rationale, not causality in her words. It’s the incited imagery, the synesthesia— a young man playing a wooden flute that he carved himself on the meadow, dazzling sunlight, morning dew on the tip of grass-blade, no need for theology nor debate, let the world be and nothing there is but this moment of the precious fragrant dawn….

She sits among the debris of her works in her studio. Ceramic plates, pieces, cups, mini sculptures, etc. are scattered in all directions. Out on the balcony, there’s the residue of a failed experiment.

Listening to her, one is drawn into the nuances of color, texture and form. A language beyond semantics and metaphors emerges, psychedelic, in its literal sense.

For someone who doesn’t own a kitchen, she said, “I don’t really care about creating art, living well is more important.” As a fellow artist, I envy her.

Living well to her is to dive deep into her pile of ceramics, dwelling in colors and form, tests and failures. Occasionally, she encounters the precious among the crumbled sand castles, like poet, remembering that verse of inevitability, not one word exchangeable or disposable.
