Wonder Foto Day 2019 評審評語 - 張雯| Tachpasit Kunaporn

達克帕西甘迺波（Tachpasit Kunaporn音譯）的《霓虹日記》的圖像展示上與它的主題、方法、技巧以及概念呈現對比。
​以第一張我看見的圖像來說，全黑的背景包覆的一個白色的球狀物。

雖然我也懷疑我自己，當時怎麽會誤會那是一顆眼球？但這就是當下我被喚醒的記憶。
其實這個圖像可被視為一顆裂掉的月亮、顯微鏡下的怪異微生物或者只是一個很隨機的物件。
最後我明白，那是一顆燈泡。
達克帕西甘迺波(Tachpasit Kunaporn)透過他對技術精煉的掌握，
將多種的意義在圖像上貼服並且轉換成一個新的物件、故事、甚至是一個變量及抽象的概念。

​他對霓虹燈相當著迷，
他表示「一般來說，霓虹燈透過我們眼睛看到的是一個非常靜止且平靜的光，但我們仔細想一下，連續不斷的光其實是不穩定的，我們其實可以看見它在閃爍。」

我們可以發現他的靈感圍繞著這個主題，「靜止以及他的反面和運動」。
在這些他已經完成的照片中，成功地將一體兩面的概念強化在意象以及視覺上，
《霓虹日記》不只是講述死亡，也是生以及生生不息的交替循環。

如此年輕的藝術家，有能力在照片作品中，在各式各樣的物件以及景物中透過精緻的燈光設置呈現生生不息的樣貌，
是一個非常卓越的里程碑。這樣的技術水平以及研究，達克帕西甘迺波(Tachpasit Kunaporn)值得受到大家的讚揚，
​而作品的深度表現，他無庸置疑的是一位真正的藝術家！

​Tachpasit Kunaporn – Neon Diary
My Jury Award at Wonder Foto Day 2019, Taipei

Tachpasit Kunaporn’s photographic work is one thing and its opposite, be it the subject, the method, the technic, the concept. Take this first image I saw. A white round shaped object covered with lines over a dark background. Why did I think it was an eye ball ?! Obviously it is not an eyeball… but this is what it awoke in me. Actually, it could also be a cracked moon, some alien microorganisms in the lens of a microscope, or just a random object. It turned out that it was, well, a lamp. With his incredible technical mastery, Tachpasit Kunaporn is able to layer multiple meanings into his subjects, to morph them into new objects, into a story, into movements as well as into abstraction. Tachpasit Kunaporn is fascinated by neon lights as he says “Neon light in general, according to our eyes, we see that the light is very still and quiet, but when we consider carefully, the consistent is uncertain, we see the flickering”. Once again, his inspiration revolves around a central theme: stillness - and its opposite: movement. The works he has been crafting around lights proved successful in adding depth both in terms of meaning and of visual effect.
The Neon Diary serie is not just about death, it is also about life and the circles of life. Being able to express the circles of life in his photographic work through all kind of objects and landscapes captured in very sophisticated lightings is a remarkable achievement for someone this young. The technical quality and research of Tachpasit Kunaporn would be enough to win him praise, but the depth and expressiveness of his work is what makes him a true artist.
