《曬背》攝影書展覽 'Sunny Side Back' Photobook Exhibition

‘Sunny Side Back’ photobook exhibition by Ji Xiang

Artist: Ji Xiang (@jason_x.j)
Curator: Michelle Chan (@litte.rice)
Presented: at 1:1 Studio (@121bookstudio)

During cold sunny days in Hong Kong, the public open space under an office tower in Central turns into a sun-bathing plaza at noon, where office workers stand silently with their backs to the sun.

The Sunny Side Back, the photobook of the same title, is placed inside 1:1 studio, accompanied with elements translated from the public space in Central, transforming the studio into a constructed urban space. The installation explores the multiple viewing relationships between subject and camera, print and viewer, as well as semantic shifts between 2D and 3D during image making. It invites viewers to question their own perspective of looking: how we see, what we notice, and how our position shapes what becomes visible.

《曬背》記錄了在香港中環的一處公共空間，公衆在冬天的正午時分自發曬背的短暫現象。展覽將中環的公共空間於1:1 studio轉譯，邀請觀衆體驗攝影書内部的空間。圖像在平面與立體之間、正面與背面轉換，探討二維圖像在平面之外觀看的可能。展覽空間探討多重觀看關係，物體與相機之間，圖像與觀者之間，以及圖像在實體化的過程中二維與三維之間的語義偏移。展覽邀請觀衆思考觀看結果與個體的觀看方式及位置的關係。
