层次，是日本艺术家铃木隆太创作的源泉：

丝网版画与日本浮世绘木版画相结合的创作手法；

不同形式面线与色彩叠加的表现样式；

层层叠叠立体的视觉效果；

多维度认知方式的隐喻。

一场展览通常有四个层次的意义：

展品，是一个层次；

展览，是另外一个层次；

展品与空间构建的意义，又是一个层次；

最后，不同观众的解读再次生成出一个新的层次。

我们习惯性将展览等同于展品，

将注意力集中在作品上。

而展览的更多意义在于探讨展品在不同空间的呈现的效果；

展品与空间构建的艺术场域；

以及，

为观众搭建与展品对话与交流的桥梁；

引导观众不要局限在某件作品上，

从整体上感受展览场域，

并遵从现场的真实感受，

是本次展览《层次的隐喻》的出发点之一，

希望通过铃木的版画作品引导观众多角度思考。

“Layer”, the source of creation of Japanese artist Ryuta Suzuki,

Reflects in his creations combining the techniques of screen printing with those of Japanese Ukiyo-e woodcut prints,

His patterns of expression as a superposition of surfaces, lines and colours of different styles,

The solid visual effects which is shaped by tier upon tier of layers,

Metaphors of multi-dimensions.

The exhibits can be seen as a layer itself,

While the exhibition can be seen as a layer as well,

When two comes together, the combination of both the exhibits and the exhibition generates a new layer,

And eventually, the interpretations by different audience, again, give birth to new different layers.

People tend to equate the exhibition as its exhibits, and under such a state of mind, put their focuses on the exhibits only.

But the significance of an exhibition is to explore the effects of exhibits shown in different spaces,

To construct an art field by both the exhibits and the space,

As well as to build a bridge of dialogue between the audience and the exhibits.

Guiding the audience not to limit their focuses on a particular exhibit but to feel the exhibition field as a whole, and to follow the genuine and direct feelings on the spot,

Is what the exhibition Reflections of the Layer hopes to bring to the audience.

By showcasing Ryuta’s work of layers, the exhibition hopes to provide more perspectives of the way of viewing for the audience.
