The Dhampir House 半吸血鬼的屋子

“望著未來我，心歸昔日。” 「半吸血鬼的屋子」是對我個人內心狀態的深刻解剖。靈感汲取自「吸血鬼獵人D：血慾」，作品旨在表達對未來抱持憧憬，卻又對逝去時光留戀不捨的複雜心境。藉由作品來表達我對未來有著憧憬但又珍惜著過去的複雜心理。作品標題的「半吸血鬼」，指的是徘徊於過去與未來、理性與情感之間的過渡狀態。 作品中，玩偶身處在哥德式大廳中，儘管身後是現代社會的標誌，一座高聳的鋼筋叢林，玩偶在燈光下卻選擇將目光投向反方向，亦無法牽動他的心神。這暗示了在網路與科技讓世界一切盡收眼底的時代，我卻寧願選擇沉浸於過去那些令人動容的回憶中，對冷漠的未來景觀感到意興闌珊。 我使用霓虹的紅色與紫色渲染窗外的未來城市，並用暗沉的血紅與黑色架構起大廳。隨後，利用戲劇性的鮮紅與白色挑起光影，凸顯畫面張力。作品藉由融合古今兩代的視覺元素，營造出歌德龐克（Gothic Punk）的獨特風格。 “Gazing upon the Future, my Heart Rests in the Past.” “The Dhampir House” is a profound dissection of my personal psychological state. Drawing inspiration from the aesthetics of Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, the work aims to express the complex inner conflict of both aspiring toward the future and being unwilling to let go of cherished memories of the past. The 'Dhampir' in the title symbolizes the individual's transitional state, caught between the past and the future, between reason and emotion. In the work, the puppet is situated in a Gothic-style hall. Though the symbol of modern society—a towering steel jungle—is visible outside the window, the puppet chooses to look away, the sight failing to capture its attention or stir its soul. This suggests that in an age where the internet and technology bring the entire world into view, I choose instead to immerse myself in the moving memories of the past, remaining utterly indifferent to the cold landscape of the future. For the technique, I use neon reds and purples to render the future city outside the window, while constructing the hall using dark, moody blood-red and black tones. This is followed by the dramatic interplay of vivid red and white to create strong lighting contrasts, enhancing the visual tension. By fusing elements from two distinct eras—the antique and the modern—the work successfully achieves a unique Gothic Punk aesthetic.
