Deer Enclosure

鹿柴, 2016

Watercolor on Paper


Deer Enclosure is a retrospective work that serves archiving, analyzing and recreating my music composition Deer Enclosure from a visual perspective.  The music represented my composition techniques and aesthetics that I have been trying hard to achieve in these years. Therefore, it is good to look back and review the work in order to find the music clues I designed intentionally and intuitively, and transcribe these musical ideas into graphical elements for both musically and non-musically trained people to understand the piece.

New meanings are derived during the process of transcription, as it materialized the imagination which took place between the visual and sonic aspects. However, most of the musical elements are rather subjective. How can I make the viewers perceive pentatonic chords as green, or disjunct leaps as triangles? Instead of persuading them to believe what my visual imagination is, in this work, I am presenting my system of visualization of sound which consists of unity, deduction, questioning, reasoning, consciousness and unconsciousness.

《鹿柴》是我同名音樂作品《鹿柴》的視覺呈現。音樂上，《鹿柴》能代表我的作曲技巧和美學，希望藉此視覺創作追溯自己的作曲足跡。把音樂從聽覺媒介傳譯到視覺媒介，新的意思便在其中誕生。音樂和繪畫皆為主觀呈現，我無法說服別人傳譯中的所有邏輯，我只是呈現一套個人的創作系統。
