Racecourse Pace / 踱步馬場
This work revolves around the present and old images of Happy Valley Racecourse. Its background shifts from village scenary to multi-storey stands and buildings. We see the moulding of racing culture with its topographic change.
Through represented scenaries, I invite viewers to enter into the unimaginable infant stage of a culture. From these landscapes which looked incomplete, we review the sense of foreigness of racing, as an extraneous culture.
《踱步馬場》集中呈現跑馬地馬場的古今相片，從農鄉山林，慢慢步向築起的觀眾席和建設，作品以地景上的變化，觀看賽馬文化的塑型。
透過重繪的舊景，我邀請觀者進入難以想像的文化初生狀態，從若有所失的風景中，重新審視賽馬這個外來文化所帶來的異域感。
