客廳 ── 家庭故事的軸線
Living Room: A Fiber within the Family Narratives
______｜不存在劇場
客廳是離家和返家第一個經過的地方
是家人和客人都可以待著的地方
也是我在還離它很遠的時候
仍可以最快建立出圖像的家中地點
不存在劇場的展間其實以格局來說就好像客廳
當推開夕陽色的門
我覺得可以訴說一些故事
（可能也不只我的家庭故事）
在這個地方，我打開了一些故事
也把白車開回台南了
但它已變成另一種樣子
______｜Absence Space
The living room is the first place we pass through—
when we leave home, and when we return.
It’s where both family and guests are allowed to stay.
Even when I was far from it,
it remained the clearest place I could picture in my mind.
The gallery at Absence Space, with its layout,
Ressembles a living room—despite not being one.
When I push open the sunset-colored door,
it feels like a place where stories can be told—
(Perhaps not just stories from my own family.)
Here, I’ve opened a few of those stories.
And I’ve brought the white car back to Tainan.
Though now, it has taken on another form.

----------
《客廳》系列作品的演出，邀請了兩位有特殊家庭故事的友人，其一是《童年是暈，如今醒目》的演出者，她有一個需要不斷搬家的故事，但後來能讓她感到安全的，卻是移動經驗本身。
另一位朋友則是在一次旅行，意外得知逝世的爸爸，化為一隻鳥在她旁邊守護，她就此描述從前住的家屋，曾一次有隻從未看過的鳥，飛來，爸爸叫她不要嚇跑牠，頑皮的年紀，沒有放在心上。後來再也沒用肉眼看見那隻鳥了。
演出串連著兩人的家庭故事，也與展覽作品再勾勒出，另一條述說軸線。
期待和你們翻開這篇故事。

----------
This performance, part of the “Living Room” series, features two close friends—both carrying unique family stories.
One of them, who also performs in "Something to Remember You By", has a life shaped by frequent relocations. Paradoxically, it is the constant movement itself that eventually became her source of security.
The other recalls a moment during a trip, when she came to believe that her late father had returned—this time, in the form of a bird quietly keeping her company. That moment led her back to a memory from childhood: a bird she had never seen before had once flown into their home. Her father told her gently not to scare it away. She was still young then and didn’t think much of it. The bird flew off, and she never saw it again—or at least, not with her eyes.
The performance interweaves these two stories and traces a new emotional thread that resonates with the artworks in the exhibition—forming another axis of narrative.
We invite you to come and open this chapter with us.
