在你眼中的世界是什麼樣子?在視覺範圍內,你看到了什麼?

彭弘智挑戰我們的視覺思維和觀看方式,不以人出發,而是以「狗」為觀看的方式。各種動作的狗雕塑作為作品主體,每隻狗的身體部位都被開了一個洞,洞裡播放以狗的視點來觀看的世界,攝影機設置於狗的頭上,模擬狗的視野,記錄著牠們聚會、搶食、嬉鬧的場景,觀看時,觀者必須將臉貼著白色玻璃纖維製作的狗頭,強迫觀者調整觀看的姿態,使觀者進入到作品之中,以動物的角度來觀看世界。以趣味戲耍的方式,將「觀眾觀點」與「狗觀點」轉換,透過觀者的介入參與個體與他者的關係重新組合

What does the world look like to you? What can you see from your position in the world?

Peng Hung-chih challenges our visual thinking and the way in which we habitually view things. He does this by viewing the world not from the point of view of people but from that of a “dog.” The central focus of his work is a series of dog sculptures in different poses. However, each canine has a hole in its body and as the viewer looks into that hole he or she can see a film of the world as seen through the eyes of a dog. A camera is attached to the head of a dog replicating the world through the eyes of man’s best friend, as it records scenes of how they meet, take food and play. In order to view this, the viewer must press his of her head up against a white glass fiber dog’s head, forcing us to change the posture from which we watch, which in turn makes the viewer part of the work, seeing the world from the perspective of an animal. Through his use of irony and mockery the artist successfully swaps the viewpoint of the audience and the dog and by making the viewer an integral part of the work and reconstructing the relationship between people and dogs, we unconsciously also become part of this absurd scene.
