『交換一件禮物』- 成果展
2021.11.09 (二) - 11.20(六)
"交換一件禮物" 計劃，感謝所有的參與者，今年共尋找到23位主人，很高興大家喜歡這個特別企劃，彼此都獲得"收集感"的滿足。
成果展方面希望呈現不同的視覺感受。 從這次的交換過程中，參與者透過不同的形式作品交換，包含各式媒材的繪畫、木雕創作、陶與瓷創作及結合齒模的複合媒材作品還有以昆蟲標本作為採集系列的作品，和肖像作品…，其靈感有來自最近話題性高的韓國電視劇“魷魚遊戲”....等，可以發現有趣的是交換本身的精神並非用貨幣價值來衡量，而是可以用不同的形式，感受那無形的內在價值所附加的認同、尊重及情感，回到純樸的物物交換。
經濟學家亞當•斯密(Adam Smith, 1723-1790) 曾指出，"在沒有貨幣之前，人們會利用七隻雞交換一頭羊，或者用一袋穀物交換一雙涼鞋。" 這次的交換計畫特展，對小巴廊來說交換其實是尋找彼此喜歡的東西，並以視覺的搭配為主軸，將交換到的作品與部落藝術作品搭配，呈現出另一種視覺的可能性與對話。 因為喜歡才會有心中的價值產生 . 如果沒喜歡就算是再昂貴的也僅存於擁有者本身 ...。
小巴廊 致力推廣部落藝術，透過這個"年度的交換企劃"讓更多人認識部落藝術，很開心將這些部落作品交換到喜愛它們的主人手中，融入他們生活，帶給他們一點點不一樣的啟發與感受。
The exhibition aims to present different visual experiences. In the exchange process, participants have exchanged works in various forms, including paintings in different media, wood carvings, ceramics, composite media works combining dental molds, insect specimen collections, portrait works, and more. Some of the inspiration even comes from the widely discussed South Korean TV drama "Squid Game." An interesting discovery is that the spirit of exchange itself is not measured by monetary value but through different forms, where one can feel the intangible inner value attached to recognition, respect, and emotion, returning to the pure concept of bartering.
Economist Adam Smith (1723-1790) once pointed out, "Before the invention of money, people would exchange seven chickens for one sheep, or a bag of grain for a pair of sandals." For the special exhibition of this exchange program, the essence of exchange is actually about finding things that one likes, with the visual pairing as the main focus. The exchanged works are paired with tribal art pieces to present another visual possibility and dialogue. The value of an item only arises when we like it. If it is not liked, even the most expensive item remains only with its owner.
Xiaobalang is dedicated to promoting tribal art through this "annual exchange project," allowing more people to learn about tribal art. We are thrilled to have these tribal works exchanged to the hands of those who love them, integrating them into their lives, bringing them a unique sense of inspiration and experience.
