Interview / BOUNCE

BOUNCE, a famous graffiti artist and also my friend, has been invited to several countries to display his works and participated in many art exhibitions to share his experience. Even Adidas and many international brands are his clients. Today in the PEOPLE section, let BOUNCE tells you his passion about graffiti.

BOUNCE─有名的塗鴉藝術家也同時是我的好朋友─已被數個國家獲邀參展,也參與大大小小的藝術節分享他的創作經歷,更與像Adidas這樣的國際品牌合作。今天的人物專題,讓BOUNCE來告訴你他對塗鴉藝術的熱情。


1. Introduce yourself, your works and what the meaning behind BOUNCE?
    先簡單的介紹你自己的背景,名字想傳達的主旨和其風格
Since I was a child, I have obsessed with painting. While I was in senior high, I studied in Fu-Hsin Trade and Arts School to learn traditional arts. I participated in several National Art Exhibitions and won many prizes in the oil painting contests. Then I graduated from Art School with the highest honors and went to Department of Applied Arts, Fu Jen Catholic University. I start to do 
graffiti and use the name “BOUNCE” as my pseudonym on 2005. Although at that time entering the world of graffiti for me is a little bit too late, the training of traditional art before does build a solid foundation for me to create differences from others. I create my own signature: a rabbit with story in it. And because of this little creature, the graffiti of mine has story to tell. I find myself in graffiti.

我從小就熱愛畫畫一直到現在都沒停過。高中進入復興美工接受傳統藝術的薰陶,參加各大全國油畫美展更是得無數的獎項,並以全校前三名畢業直升輔大應用美術系。傳統藝術背景的我並於2005年開始以” BOUNCE”之名遊走街頭。雖然起步有點晚.但是之前的研究與觀察對於現在的創作有相當的幫助,讓創作更有根基。Bounce創造了一隻屬於他的兔子,他的塗鴉也有個屬於他的故事,更讓這個城市添加了點故事性。跳脫自己的背景傳統藝術,發現內心最原始的細胞,叛逆又有趣的塗鴉創作動力。


2. You studied traditional arts. Why do you change your path to graffiti?
   怎麼會想要走上街頭藝術這條路的?

Although I won several national contests in painting sections, I never felt any sense of achievement from those contests. I learned cubism and Impressionism and all the painting works I created are just applications of those theories. Until one day I found graffiti while I traveled abroad, I immediately knew that is the way I want to delivery my creation.

也是因為從前都是以油畫水彩立體派印象派等等傳統美學畫派,隨然當初獲得肯定也得過國家大大小小的獎項,但是我從未因為這樣感到有特別的成就感,因為這些畫派與畫法都只是揣摩前人的理論所創作。直到有一天我發現到國外的街頭藝術,親身到街頭創作,才發現這才是屬於我這時代屬於我該有的創作方式,將自身結合環境的感動運用全身感官的巨型創作。
3. Where and how you do find your inspiration of creation?
    平常怎麼獲取設計靈感?
Movies, music, skateboard, toys, travel experience and other things in my life are elements of my creation.
我通常都是從電影.音樂.滑板.玩具.旅行
與生活大小精彩的事並保持樂觀天真的心態中得到靈感。
4. Introduce your one of your favorite works.  
   簡單介紹你最喜歡的ㄧ件作品,告訴一下這作品的涵意和創作動機?

Actually, I love every works I created. But all my works show a same theme: find your dream and fulfill your dream. There is BOUNCE in everyone life.
每件作品其實我都滿喜歡的,但我所有作品都有一個主要BOUNCE的創作動機與意涵概念,就是希望大家能夠找回心中最初的夢想不放棄,也希望大家能夠像BOUNCE字面上一樣的感覺,開心自在活潑不死板的過生活。

5. Your future goal? 
   對自己未來的期許?
My goal is to let the people around the world to know me and my works.
繼續努力將自己做到最好,也希望讓全世界的人認識我,欣賞到我的作品。
