月亮、橋洞與倒影,一直是古代文人墨客在詩畫中常見的元素
——借物興嘆、以景吟詠,賦予它們豐富的詩意和內涵。在〈月光〉中,藝術家曾瑋將在水月橋的橋洞中,置入一個氣球狀的軟質發光體,就像是將原本應該在夜空中發光的月亮,巧妙地搬移到了水面之上。輕盈而具有穿透性的發光體,與堅實厚重橋墩, 形成了體感上的對比,創作者以詼諧而具有創意的方式,帶給觀眾重新體驗在地環境的機會,也讓月亮、橋洞與倒影有了重新交會的可能。
The moon, archway and reflection have been common elements in ancient poems and paintings. Ancient literati tended to express their emotions by virtue of objects and recite poetry amid scenery, rendering the objects and scenery wonderfully poetic and rich in connotation. Wei Zeng installed a balloon-like, soft and luminous body at the archway of the Shuiyue Bridge, as if the artist ingeniously moved the moon supposed to shine in the night sky onto the surface of the water. Titled Moonlight, this lithe, translucent installation contrasts sharply with the solid, heavy bridge pier in terms of mass. Adopting a way as jocular as creative, the artist not only offers the visitors exciting opportunities to rediscover the local environment, but also makes possible the reunion of the moon, archway and reflection.
