前言

松山文創園區「藝術窗框畫」今年第二檔的藝術窗窗計畫，與紐西蘭奧克蘭攝影節攜手合作，推出以「水」為主題的攝影作品展，展覽捕捉奧克蘭居民在這座紐西蘭最大城市的市區、河流、港灣與海灘中，與水之間天生緊密相連的動人瞬間。

本展於松山文創園區年度原創基地節期間共同呈現。展覽將目光聚焦於北太平洋的島國台灣，以及同屬一片大洋南端的紐西蘭群島，串起一趟跨越海洋的文化與思潮交會之旅。本計畫透過攝影藝術，跨越國界與語言的藩籬，慶祝人類社會彼此緊密相連的深刻情誼。

Exhibition Introduction

The second exhibition of this year's Art Window Project at Songshan Cultural and Creative Park features a collaboration with the Auckland Festival of Photography, New Zealand, presenting a photography exhibition themed around the water. This curated exhibition of water themed images capturing moments of Aucklanders’ innate relationship with water in the city, rivers, harbours and beaches around its biggest city.

The exhibition is presented in partnership at the annual Songyanland Festival, aligning with the island nations of Taiwan, in the northern Pacific Ocean and islands of New Zealand from the southern part of the same ocean, creating an ocean crossing of culture and ideas. This project is a celebration of humanity’s interconnectedness, across borders, language and through photographic arts.

展覽介紹

這些影像精選自該攝影節的公共計畫「奧克蘭攝影日」（Auckland Photo Day）以及「奧克蘭攝影部落格影像資料庫」（Auckland Photo Blog Archives）。

除了「公民攝影」資料庫中由大眾記錄的影像外，展覽亦從另一角度切入，加入四幅來自《紐西蘭先驅報》新聞攝影記者的作品，呈現日常新聞快節奏下的即時視野。然而，擺脫了刊載的時效限制，這些影像延伸出更宏大的對話——呈現在毛利大地（Aotearoa New Zealand），人與水、土地（whenua）及場域之間亙古的深厚關係。

這裡散發著一種豐盈的氣息。光影灑落於水面之上。地平線綿延浩瀚。軀體穿梭於地景之中。獨木舟（waka）承載著世代累積的文化記憶。那些時刻彷彿永恒，宛如這些場所與體驗，得以永遠停格在最動人的美好之中。

然而，攝影卻以最動人的方式欺騙了我們。

它為本質上稍縱即逝的光景，凝結出永恆。

光影早已悄然更迭，人已遠離，潮起潮落，大地在靜默中緩慢演變。相框裡看似定格的瞬間，實則不過是這瞬息萬變世界中的滄海一粟。

於是，這些影像超越了單純的紀實。它們是記憶的碎片，沉靜地紀錄著那些無法被定格的場域、身影與微光。它們輕聲詰問：我們所見為何？何復記憶？有哪些又正在悄然逝去？

在這個日益透過數位影像來體驗的世界裡，照片無所不在，卻也都不在場：它們被無休止地拍攝、分享與消耗，而其所記錄的實體環境卻依然脆弱且面臨變遷。過度充斥的影像，往往讓那些原本非凡的事物顯得平淡無奇。

這場展覽，是一次請我們再次凝視的邀請。

駐足於水畔，走進大地，將身心短暫放逐於美好與無限可能之中。然後，靜心思索未來。

眼前所見光景，並非永恆餽贈。

水既是鏡頭的主角，亦是隱喻：它是孕育生命、記憶與認同的源頭，更輕聲提醒我們周遭這個世界，時刻都在永不息止的轉變。

它提醒著我們，萬物皆非永遠不變。

潮汐不會停歇，

地景仍在更迭，

記憶持續淡去，

我們，亦在時光裡逝去。

正因如此，這些影像深藏著一股靜默的迫切。它們不僅點醒我們去讚賞這片毛利之地（Aotearoa）的水色山光，更讓我們正視那脆弱，深思未來的世代正冒著什麼風險。

About the Exhibition

These images are selected from the public projects Auckland Photo Day and the Auckland Photo Blog Archives.

Alongside the photographs contributed by the public through these “citizen photography” project archives, four works by photojournalists from the national newspaper New Zealand Herald enter the exhibition from another perspective—the immediacy of the daily news cycle. Yet beyond the moment of publication, these photographs speak to something larger: our enduring relationship with water, whenua and place across Aotearoa New Zealand.

There is a sense of abundance here. Light falling across water. Vast horizons. Bodies move through landscape. Waka carrying generations of cultural memories. Moments that appear timeless, as though these places and experiences might remain suspended in an eternal state of beauty.
 

But photography deceives us in the most beautiful way.

It gives permanence to what is, by nature, temporary.

The light has already changed. The people have moved on. The tide has turned. The landscape continues its slow transformation. What appears fixed within the photographic frame is, in reality, part of an ever-changing world.

These photographs therefore become more than documents. They are fragments of memory—quiet records of places, people and moments that cannot be held still. They ask us to consider what we see, what we remember, and what might disappear.

In a world increasingly experienced through the digital image, photographs are everywhere and nowhere: endlessly captured, shared and consumed, while the physical environments they depict remain vulnerable to change. The abundance of images can make the extraordinary feel ordinary.

This exhibition asks us to look again.

To linger with the water. To enter the landscape. To become momentarily lost in its beauty and possibility. And then to consider the future.

For what we see here is not guaranteed.

Water becomes both subject and metaphor: a source of life, memory and identity, and a reminder of the continual transformation of the world around us.

It reminds us that nothing stands still.

Not the tide.

Not the landscape.

Not memory.

Not us.

In this sense, the photographs carry a quiet sense of urgency. They encourage us not simply to admire the beauty of Aotearoa’s water scenes and landscapes, but to recognize their fragility and consider what is at stake for future generations.
