故事從內容形成、話語表達，至扭弄身體的呈現­­--是一段既曖昧又複雜的過程。
不管起源是事實或擬造，經由不同聲調的話語發送，和多種身體行為的轉化與烘托後，呈現的是另一種層層相疊、面向多元的複合式產品。

藉由不同事件和故事的採編，結合聲音語調，以及各種行為的搭配，來操作連結間的矛盾與缺口；透過內容、行為過程、亦或人聲的處理，以讓故事、事件結果對觀者產生另種說服性的效應。

此次在台灣之首次個展，集結了我在不同階段收集的故事與敘述者，藉由各種身體型態、話語、行為以及環境元素，以錄像形式呈現多種交疊組合的敘述。除了表現原始事件發生至重現的曖昧過程外，也藉機探討觀者在層層伎倆與包裝影響下， 對所謂真實性與劇情高潮的敏感度及欲求。

林志銳於1979年出生於台北台灣 。她先後於加拿大艾密利卡爾藝術大學獲得藝術創作學士(2005)，於英國倫敦大學歌德史密斯學院獲得藝術創作碩士(2007)。她以錄像作為她主要記錄和操作行為表演之呈現方式，來探索在敘事和表演交疊混合下，所產生的多種結果和效應。

參與過之國內外近年展覽包括 吵鬧紀念堂 ，板橋435國際藝術村(2010); 台北國際當代藝術博覽會，王朝大酒店(2010)；人類資源，V22碼頭藝文空間，倫敦，英國(2008); 多樣夜晚，蒙塔古臂空間，倫敦，英國；年中長日電影節，惠特斯布爾雙年展衛星特輯，惠特斯布爾，英國(2008)；視覺偏斜，洛克斯吧與銀幕空間，倫敦，英國，和公開銀幕，白教堂美術館，倫敦，英國(2007)。

Threads – A Solo Show by Chih-Jui DiDi Lin

The progress of a story from the formation of the content, to the expressions of words, and the presentation of the physical performance, is an ambiguous and complicated journey.

The origin of a story is usually either from fact or fiction, but through the transmission of different tones and words, along with the transformation and support from a range of physical behaviours or performances, a story can develop to become a complex superimposed and multidimensional product.

A key interest in my work is interrogating the structure of the story and reviewing and re-configuring the conventional narrative structure to create new and often unexpected results. By editing a range of events and stories together, and combining them with different voices and physical performances, the resulting works play on the gaps and contradictions that occur between narrative and performance and investigate the relationship between these two integral elements.

This first solo exhibition gathers together stories and performances that I have been collecting throughout different stages and times. Via various performance postures, behaviours, spoken words and surroundings, I aim to present a diverse, and integrated narrative through a video format. In addition to displaying the ambiguous course between the original fact, and the re-telling of the story, the exhibition also aims to explore the viewer’s susceptibility and attraction towards the so-called “authenticity” and “plot climax” under layers of disguises and delusions.

Lin, Chih-Jui DiDi was born in Taipei, Taiwan in 1979. She earned a BFA from Emily Carr University of Art and Design, Vancouver, Canada (2005) and an MFA from Goldsmiths College, University of London, United Kingdom (2007). Lin applies video as her major means to record and manipulate the impression of her performances and to explore the various outcomes resulting from the integration between narrative and performance. Lin has had numerous exhibitions in Taiwan and abroad, recent exhibition include: Noisy Memorial Hall, 435 International Arts Village, Banciao, Taiwan (2010); Young Art Taipei, Sunworld Dynasty Hotel, Taipei, Taiwan (2010); Human Resources, V22 Wharf Road Project Space, London, UK (2008); Variety Night, The Montague Arms, London, UK(2008); The Longest Day of the Year Film Festival, Whitstable Biennale-Satellite Programme, Whitstable, UK (2008); Visual Deflection, Roxy Bar & Screen, London, UK (2007), and Open Screening, Whitechapel Gallery, London, UK.
