数学是一个能独立于物理宇宙的一个纯粹的世界,不为任何生物或物理事件所左右,而同时又是万物规律所依据的根本。当我利用数学知识创立不同的密码系统进行艺术创作时,也在企图以一种纯粹的形式构造一个全新的世界,一个我们所处的物理世界的一个数学形式的镜像。在这个世界里,没有具体生物的痕迹,但却能感受到感情和理智的抽象式表达以及它们之间的交融和斗争。而密码的涉入则象征着我们物理世界的恒定规律和各种具有现实性指向的寓意。
在展览场地绘制了一个由我密码构成的巨型互动性迷宫,当观众进入观看展览时,也随即进入到这个数学的镜像中。迷宫的构造,在一定程度上象征着充满未知的人生。生命的历程从来不是一条直线,它就像一个错综复杂的迷宫般,有时候迂回绕道,有时候碰壁无路。而正是在这种迷途中,我们企图寻找着生命的意义。
Mathematics is a pure world independent from the physical universe. When I use math to create different code systems for art, I am attempting to construct a completely new world in a pure form, a mirror of the physical world that we live in. In this new world, there is no trace of tangible living things, and existing instead are abstract expressions of feeling and reason, and the blurring or struggles between them. Within these artworks, the use of code symbolizes the constant law of our physical world and the various inherent methods of comprehending our reality.
In the exhibition venue, there is a large-scale interactive maze composed of my code. When the audience enters the exhibition, they also enter the mirror of math. The structure of the maze, to some extent, symbolizes a life of the unknown. The path of life is never a straight line; it is like an intricate maze with detours and, at times, walls with no way forward. It is in this complex journey, that we try to find the meaning of life.

2019年10月5日,艺术家炫名的第八个个展在北京上苑艺术馆开幕。作为上苑艺术馆2019的驻留艺术家,炫名创作了一批全新的作品并呈现在这次展览中,而尤为突出的,是他把展馆的整个场地都包裹在一个互动型的迷宫中,而这迷宫,正是由他创立的其中一套密码所构成。
On October 5, 2019, artist Pamviles has his eighth solo exhibition in Shangyuan Art Museum in Beijing. As a resident artist of Shangyuan art Museum in 2019, Pamviles has created a series of new artworks and presented them in this exhibition. What stands out is that he has drawn an interactive maze in the whole venue of the exhibition hall, which is constituted by one of the codes he created.
在这一数学镜像的迷宫中,除了密码背后隐藏的信息外,更多——如同他的艺术作品一样——在于它的象征意义。从迷宫入口进来,沿着迷宫一直走下去会碰到一些镜子,在镜子上面有着不一样的问题,这些问题随着迷宫的深入也随之渐进变化,“现实是什么?”、“为何而活?”、“何为终结?”等。它们似乎代表了人生不同阶段——从出生到死亡——所提出的疑问。而镜子的摆放位置也非常有意思,似乎只有当你在迷宫中绕道或者走到角落的时候才能碰到它们,这似乎象征着在人生的道路中,只有当你不再往一个方向一直前进时,当你遇到挫折或者空闲下来时,才开始反思或者质疑自己的人生。
In this maze, besides there’s some hidden message behind the code, there is, as in his art, a symbolic significance. As you go along the maze, you will encounter mirrors on which you will see various questions that change gradually as you go through the maze. "what is reality?" ", " what to live for? ", " what is the end?” ,etc. They seem to represent questions raised by different stages of life, from birth to death. The position of the mirror is also very interesting, it seems that only when you take a detour or walk to the corner can be able to reach them, it seems to be a symbol of the journey of life, only when you are no longer running toward one direction all the time, when you encounter frustration or idle down will you beging to reflect on or questioned your life.
在迷宫中除了镜子外,还有一些空白的方格纸,它们的大小和有字的镜子完全一样,本来满心期待能看到如同镜子那样的字样却什么都没有,让人难免有点失望。这似乎象征着,有时候你也许努力了,结果却一无所得。
In addition to the mirror, there are some blank white papers; all the same size as the mirror which has words on, when you expect to see the similar written words again but only find out there’s nothing on it, it gets a little disappointing. It seems to symbolize that sometimes you might try and get nothing.
在迷宫中走到一定程度,会碰到一个方形站台,只见上面贴着“被遗弃的问题”的标签,站台上的盒子里面装满了各种各样的问题,它们都曾经被提问过,但很快就被忙碌的生活所占据并抛于脑后。它们包括:“生命的意义?”、“我该何去何从?”、“这就是我的目标?”等。
At some point in the maze, you come across a square platform labeled "The forsaken questions," and boxes on the platform are filled with questions that have been asked but are quickly taken up and forgotten by your busy life. They include: "the meaning of life? ", " where should I go? ", " this is my goal?”, etc.
在我们生命中,会遇到很多选择,会提出很多问题,也会经常绕道甚至碰壁,会迷茫和怀疑,也会反省和审视,也许我们穷尽一生也找不到我们满意的答案,徒劳半世却回到了原点,但正是在这种追寻中,我们才有可能体会到生命的意义。展览中的这个迷宫不仅仅是数学镜像的迷宫,也象征着一个人生的缩影。
In our life, we will encounter a lot of choices, ask many questions, we would get confused and have doubts, we would also reflect our life and look back, maybe we try our whole life but never find the satisfied answer to our questions, and we work so hard but back to where we started, but it is in the pursuit, we may experience the meaning of life. The maze in this exhibition is not only a mirror of math, but also a symbol of life.

艺术家炫名,在精神失常时找到了艺术,在爱的追求中创立了Apm数学定理, 曾身无分文地流浪过,也曾为心中的缪斯而去到成都并在那里生活了四年。在2016年,他的书《漂·绎:一个艺术家的疯狂、性、艺术与哲学》出版,讲述其故事、油画、诗作和哲学。至今他已在北京、成都、广州、东莞、深圳、欧洲等地举办过各种个人展览及艺术活动。
炫名的作品涉及人生、哲学、性、宗教等元素,而最为突出的是其对数学的涉及。在他的画中总能发现与数学、密码相关的特性,在这部分画中,他把自己创立的Apm定理融入其中,每一个符号、几何图形的构成、甚至物象和线条的位置或颜色的选择都是一套经过数学处理的密码,而里面则隐含着一些被遗忘的信息。如同一张寻宝地图般诉说着一个隐蔽的故事。他创立的这些秘密系统都具有明显的象征意义,为此他以大量的文字阐述了自己的艺术理论。他的画所涉及的主题:数学、哲学、物理、宗教和性,都在以各自的方式——逻辑、思辨、探索、信仰与感受——企图阐述人生与宇宙的奥秘以求找到可能的真理,而这也是炫名的艺术之路,在未知的深究中不断前行。

Artist Pamviles found art when he suffered from a mental breakdown at the age of eighteen, ever since then art has become part of his life. At this moment he has had eight solo exhibitions and several group exhibitions and art activities in Guangzhou, Chengdu, Shenzhen, Dongguan, Beijing, Serbia and other various places, in addition to publishing a book of his stories, paintings, poetry and philosophy.
Pamviles’ artworks are related to life, mathematics, philosophy, society and many other subjects. When he was twenty, he created a mathematical theorem, Apm Theorem, of which he uses in his art practice. With his educational background of mathematics, his current artworks incorporate the form of codes as a major element of his art style. The codes he creates hide information within the paintings, like a map that leads to a hidden story.
