邓多丽 Dori Deng

生于1985年,是一位生活和工作在英国的华裔英国艺术家。邓多丽致力于光投射媒介,她研究了这种媒介的时间和结构特性,并精心设计了光、空间和时间的独特组合。她的艺术实践平衡了秩序和偶然性,通过设计有机物形成了和谐。她的光作品带来了具有时间即时性的切实体验。光作为一种抽象媒介,在某种程度上将邓多丽从规模的限制中解放出来,她的光作品从雕塑、特定场地的装置到舞台表演,应有尽有。

光既可以作为客体,也可以作为主体,但它是一种感性的抽象——一种唤起我们与建筑空间乃至时间相关的无意识概念的工具。


Born in 1985, she is a Chinese-British artist living and working in the UK. Dedicated to the medium of projected light, Deng investigated the temporal and structural qualities of the medium and orchestrated a unique composition of light, space and time. Her art practice balanced the order and chance—formed harmony by engineering the organic. Her lightworks bring tangible experiences with temporal immediacy. Light as an abstract medium, in some way liberated Deng from the limitation of scale, her lightworks ranged from sculpture, and site-specific installation, to staged performances. 

Light functions as either the object or the subject, but a sensual abstract—a tool to evoke our unaware notion connected to the architectural space, further to time.
