「人是生命所有片刻的集合」—《天使望鄉》

陳若軒透過與被攝者間的問答，拆解事物尋找細節與變異，創作圍繞社會變遷與當代議題，透過尋常微細而真切的生命紀實，建構敘事。

當片刻被凍結，瞬間閃爍著微光，如詩句般叮鈴迴響如集體意識。

RoHsuan Chen /// Imagery Creative

The more life answered, the more questions heaved and tossed. 

We go back in time searching for decisive moments; moments that might have helped form our presents and allow us to glance at the glittering light from our futures. 

We single out those moments from the routine, examine them prudently and piece them into a fictional theory composed by the mundane and the nuances. We embody these subtleties into a personal faith which conveniences us to depend on, which saves us when we are lost in fear and despair. We manage to firmly stand on our fictional faith even though we cannot possibly be sure whether those moments we consciously selected are factual or a one sided personal theory. 

Most of my works are about collecting and documenting fragments through a foreign eye, consciously selecting the anomalies from the routine and framing those instants into a personal fiction and yet a public true story.  

When moments are made monumental, subjects as well as viewers see the flickering verses echoing in their personal fictions.
