CHU Lok Ting, Natalie was born in Hong Kong in 1999. She graduates from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, majoring in Fine Arts in 2022. Chu expresses herself through ink painting, ink rubbing, and sculpture. Her work mostly studies humanistic history, commemorations, and the imageries of monuments, and further coordinate with texts and art history research on individual topics. Her work has been exhibited at institutions and art fairs such as the Hong Kong Museum of Art and Fine Art Asia, and she has attained various awards including Friends of the Art Museum Prize and Ramon Woon Creative Prize.
碑是歷史的物質性遺物;文字作為記憶的伸延,使人的溝通穿越今昔之隔、世代之隔,賦予碑明確的紀念性內涵。碑與銘文保存記憶、構造歷史,凝練前人的信念及告誡,告訴人應該相信什麼,如何實踐。碑指示過去,象徵回憶、肅穆與終結。人訪碑、讀碑,是「當下」和「過去」的相遇,觸發我們對時間的敬畏、過客的愁情。
以石造碑,是期望金石永存,可垂萬歲,盼人及其跡永恆與不朽。然先是人殁,後及碑殘;即使是金石之堅,在時間下難盼永恆,我們只能是過客,遺忘與煙滅乃是常事。「後之視今,亦猶今之視昔」,生與滅無往不復,終究是循環。
碑不成碑,字不成文。有後世子嗣一督,抛之如草芥。也有我等好事者鍾情頹垣。借情代六舟和尚言:「穿千秋,誰珍惜,向與瓦礫同棄擲。爾其小如拳,我得如珍璧。」故我以殘碑推斷其整體面貌;或以拓片作為檔案,保存堅硬碎片的「現在」;又或以畫與字捕捉過客幽情。如何安頓遺物與回憶、安撫「懷古之思」,是各個「現世」常見的思辨。望作品不僅是視覺、美學上的表現,而是個人價值觀和抱負的體現。
Steles are the material monuments of history; texts acting as the elongation of memories, allow the communication of men to evade the border of generations, thus endowing steles with concrete monumental implications. Stele and its inscription conserves remembrance and construct history, encapsulates the belief and admonition of the antecedents, tells what men ought to believe and practice. Steles denote the past, symbolizing commemoration, solemnity, and termination. Men visiting and studying a stele betokens the encounter of “present” and “yore”, provokes our awe of the time and the grief of sojourner.
Adopting stones as the material of steles, was to expect men and its traces never demolish, like how Chinese conceive metal and stones in ancient cemetery and Epigraphy 金石學. However, the demise of men, followed by the decay of stele, is the testimony to the fact that eternity would not be derived in the elapse of time. Forgetting and corruption are routines for sojourners. Rise and collapse are natural cycles of the universe.
When the steles fragmented, and the texts no more coherent, some decedents dump it with only a glimpse, whereas some and myself adore the ruins. I thereby construct the whole picture by its fragments; or adopting ink rubbing as an archive, to preserve the snatches of “present” of the fragments; or to capture the solitude of sojourner through painting and texts. How could we settle the remnants and nostalgia is a common issue in every “present”. I believe one’s artistic creation is not only a visual or aesthetic pleasure, but an embodiment of one’s values and virtue.
