尺度,是我們理解世界的方式,也是界定自我的基礎。我們總是藉已知或既有的標準度量衡去估測當下、甚至想像未知。然而,我們卻處在一個變動不斷、一再為「超級」事物所震驚,而測量參數也一再地被改寫與重新定義的環境。雕塑量體尺度的象徵與隱喻性能,正得以觀照與回應這個「以尺度變化為特色的時代」。名為「何以為度?」的本屆雕塑雙年展,即是試圖以關乎雕塑本體的度量命題 — 輕重、虛實、大小,貫穿對於多樣尺度乃至錯亂尺度之現實世界的測探。

以度量的問題作為敘事框架,本展邀集了超過二十位藝術家的作品,從沈重與失重、虛幻與具體、巨大與微小的誇張反差或曖昧矛盾,來鋪陳展出、開啟討論。種種尺度課題的辯證中,不僅展現物質的挑戰、規範的突破、驚奇或衝擊的力量,也試圖喚醒感知、激活想像,思索超出視覺觀測或理性邏輯之外的複雜現象與景況。

Scale is the way we understand the world, and the basis we define ourselves. We always use known or existing standard measurements to measure the present moment or even imagine the unknown. However, we live in an environment that constantly changes, and over and over again shocked by “super” events or objects, where parameters or scale of measurement have continued to be rewritten and redefined. The symbolic nature and metaphorical function of scale in sculpture can examine and respond to this “era characterized by changes in scale.” “Incommensurable?” attempts to focus on the themes of scale related to sculpture — weight, substantiality, and size which underline the real world exploration of diversity, and disorder of scale.

This exhibition adopts the topic of measurement as the narrative framework, invited over 20 artists; their works expands to cover the contrast, contradiction, and discussions between heavy and weightlessness, virtuality and concreteness, maximum and minimum that related to scale.

All the dialectics in scale, not only showcase material challenge, regulatory breakthrough, and surprising or impactful power, but also attempt to evoke perception, stimulate imagination, and ponder on the complicated phenomenon and condition beyond the visual observation or rational logics.
