Drawing Near 近鄉·回溯
by Chin-Jie Melodie Liu 劉沁潔
Drawing Near investigates contrasting Taiwanese identities through a multidisciplinary visual arts practice. The series documents artist Chin-Jie Melodie Liu’s journey of understanding her own identity as a Taiwanese woman of mixed heritage (of waisheng 外省 and bensheng 本省) through reinterpreting objects and photographs.
Chin-Jie Melodie Liu is an emerging Taiwanese artist based in Canberra, Australia. In 2020, Liu completed a Bachelor of Visual Arts with First Class Honours under Printmedia & Drawing at The Australian National University (ANU). Liu is currently pursuing a Master of Museum and Heritage Studies at ANU.
「近鄉·回溯」透過多元視覺藝術的手法，探討對比鮮明的台灣人身分認同。這個系列紀錄著劉沁潔，藉由重新詮釋物件與相片的方式，瞭解其本人身分認同係一位具有混和傳承(兼屬外省與本省)的台灣女人的歷程。在檢視檔案資料之際，劉沁潔進一步尋求揭開併存於當代台灣社會的各階層講述。
劉沁潔係一位逐漸嶄露頭角, 以坎培拉為創作基地, 的台灣藝術家。她於2020年在澳洲國立大學取得視覺藝術（平面媒體與繪圖）學士學位，獲評第一級榮譽的優異成績。劉沁潔正在澳洲國立大學攻讀文物與博物館碩士學位。
