Veil of Veronica
维罗尼卡之纱
Veil of Veronica (2021) draws inspiration from the Christian legend of Saint Veronica, who captured the face of Christ on a veil—a miraculous “true image" not made by human hands. This work consists of five layered portraits printed on cellophane and illuminated in a lightbox. The translucent images overlap and fold into one another, creating a shifting, unstable surface of gazes and identities.Rather than seeking a single, authentic self, Veil of Veronica reflects on the impossibility of a pure image. It reveals the self as a construction of fragments—layered, mediated, and constantly dissolving under the act of looking. What emerges is not a “true image”, but a fragile trace of presence, suspended between memory and disappearance.
《维罗尼卡之纱》(2021)汲取灵感于基督教传说——圣女维罗妮卡用面纱拭去耶稣面容,意外留下了一幅非人为绘制的“真相”。“维罗尼卡”的拉丁文意为真相(True image)。作品由五张艺术微喷于菲林片的肖像叠加而成,并通过灯箱照亮。半透明的图像相互交叠、扭曲,形成一个不断变动的凝视与身份的表面。本作并不试图寻求单一而纯粹的图像中的自我,而是反思影像中真实感的不可达性。自我在这里是由无数碎片构成的,是层叠、介入、并在凝视中不断消解的存在。浮现于作品中的,不是确定的“真相”,而是一种脆弱而微光的痕迹,悬置在记忆与消逝之间。
