《谎言》是两张一组的摄影作品,一张拍摄的是真花和真水果,另一张则是假花和假水果,两张照片并排展出,让观者自行检视和分辨真伪。现场展示,乍看两者似乎互为镜像,细看除了从中找出一些不同的端倪,例如:在真的花果照片中,可以从一些残缺、不完美的痕迹,看到生命的存在;在假的花果照片中,却因为一切完美无瑕,反而显得虚假而了无生趣,这两者的对照和检索,也因此呈现了一种耐人寻味的讯息和哲想的意义。
Lies is consisted of two photographs. One is a photograph of real flowers and fruits, and the other of fake ones. The two photographs are juxtaposed for audience to examine and verify the authenticity. In the exhibition, the two photographs seem to be each other’s mirror images. One can only tell the differences from some subtle details. For instance, in the photograph of the real flowers and fruits, there exist some traces of incompleteness and imperfections, attesting to the existence of life, whereas in the fake one, the perfection of everything seems rather unreal and lifeless. Therefore, the comparison and examination of the two reveal an intriguing message and convey a philosophical meaning.
