被自然迷惑:Stephan St-Laurent的《Kelly Richardson》(Art Star 4视频艺术双年展SAW画廊)

科幻神话和森林寓言，梦幻般的夜曲和炫目的特效——凯利·理查森的《TWILIGHT AVENGER》以一个童话般的画面开始:一片雾蒙蒙的月光下的森林空地上，栖息着一只散发着明亮绿色光雾的雄鹿。我们的主人公静静地吃着草，周围是其他森林动物的叽叽喳喳声(猫头鹰的叫声可能预示着即将到来的威胁)，他偶尔会抬起头，把目光转向我们。

与理查森的许多作品一样，《TWILIGHT AVENGER》在其精心设计的模棱两可中提出了多个问题。这个场景既有视觉上的真实感，又明显是人工合成的，既和平又不安，静止和行动之间不断转换。随着情节的展开，人们不禁要问，主人公到底是像片名所暗示的那样，是森林哨兵，还是人为事故的受害者。

最终，理查森没有回答这些问题，利用我们对视觉文件的信念和想象的唤起力量。通过对纪录片图像(理查森分别在加拿大和英国拍摄了鹿和景观元素)的数字效果的精心应用，她邀请我们质疑图像的完整性，并要求观众考虑我们与自然之间日益增加的介入关系。”Matthew Suib，放映厅

Bewildered by Nature: Kelly Richardson by Stephan St-Laurent (for Art Star 4 Video Art Biennial at SAW Gallery)

“Equal parts sci-fi myth and forest fable, dreamy nocturne and dazzling special effect—Kelly Richardson’s Twilight Avenger begins with a fairytale-worthy image of a misty, moonlit forest clearing inhabited by a majestic stag who emanates a luminous green vapour. Quietly grazing amidst the ambient chatter of other forest dwellers (the hoot of an owl may portend an imminent threat) our protagonist occasionally rears his head, shifting his gaze towards us.
Like much of Richardson’s work, Twilight Avenger poses multiple questions amidst its calculated ambiguities. The scene is at once visually convincing and obviously synthetic, peaceful and disquieting, shifting between stillness and action. As the scene unfolds, questions remain whether the protagonist is some sort of forest sentinel, as the title implies, or perhaps a victim of a man-made mishap.

Ultimately, Richardson leaves such questions unanswered, leveraging our belief in the visual document with the evocative power of the imaginary. Through painstaking application of digital effects to documentary images (Richardson filmed the deer and landscape elements in Canada and England respectively) she invites us to question the integrity of images and asks viewers to consider our increasingly mediated relationship with nature.” Matthew Suib, Screening Gallery
