英國作家約翰伯格(John Berger)在《觀看的方式》中提到:「我們注視的從來不只是事物本身;我們注視的永遠是事物與我們之間的關係。」女性成了視覺景觀(sight),看與被看其實是一種性別的權力關係。藝術中的女體多半承載著男性作家及觀眾的目光,透過「描繪」、「觀看」女性的神情姿態以獲取心靈上的滿足,然而當自己凝視著畫面中與自己相同性別之人之時,畫中之人仿佛也像自己的投射,感受到的只是眾人索求的眼光,以女體建構的世界反映的只是對於現實的性別焦慮。
我們透過「身體」去感知世界,社會也反過來建置我們的「性別」,性別的差異源自社會的期待,如果社會期待女性是個毫無情慾自主的存在,現實也真會如此嗎?我不安於處在被觀看、窺視的角度,以男體作為圖像的反建,試圖創造出一個可被操弄、控制的空間,於是在畫面上去除女性只留下男性,進而創造唯有男性被凝視的空間。透過觀者的注視,畫面中的少年形成被窺看的主體,陽剛、健壯等特質在潛意識中被自己給排斥,或許是容易與現實男性形象做連結,進而讓自身感受到威脅,因此畫面中反覆出現乖順、安靜的男性形象,此時男體的陰性化可說是自身女性慾望的想像。

The series of paintings of ‘Daily in Gaze’ discusses about female bodies and social relations, focusing on how disturbed women, who were restricted by regulations and viewed by other people, express their own lust by converting the subject and object in a visual way.
In a traditional gaze context, it is most common that the male focuses gaze on the female. In a current environment, we force this gaze exposed in public via various ways. The anxiety of gender drives me to create a space that I can easily manipulate and control. By flipping the relationship between subjects (who gaze) and objects (who are gazed), I erase the females and keep the males in the image, and a space of gaze for merely males is created accordingly. Through the gaze of viewers, male teenagers in the image became the objects. Decorated with flowers, the feminization of male body represents a harmless image. By the ink painting, I merged its soft tones into the skin texture of these boys in the hope of projecting more imagination of feminine lust on their male bodies and making myself retreat to an absolutely safe space to gaze.
