藝術家簡歷 / Artist Biography
Huginn C.（1994 年生於香港）是現居台北的藝術家，目前就讀於北藝大新媒體藝術研究所。他的創作根植於攝影與抽象表現主義的影響，並整合裝置、聲響與程式碼以探索信仰與儀式的轉譯。憑藉二十年的音樂背景與早年輔祭的經驗，他於技術、身體與自然世界之間糾纏，為人類那些不可見的連結賦予感官形式。
藝術家自述 / Artist Statement
「我在中學時期開始接觸抽象表現主義，對抽象形式的探索先是體現在繪畫上，而後延伸至攝影。在鏡頭後探索抽象的質地、光影的交互，以及氛圍的捕捉。這段早期對視覺純粹性的追求，與我在宗教環境中的成長經歷交織。
從少時擔任輔祭時對儀式身體性的體悟，到領受聖體時關於「轉化」的思考，再到聖經敘事中的史詩結構與象徵，這些具體的經驗，慢慢使我從「形」解放出來，成為我理解世界與進行創作的獨特視角，引導我從多元的感官與哲學視角來思考世界。
如今，我的創作實踐橫跨裝置、聲音、程式與表演。而長達二十年的音樂背景，同時驅使我不斷探索新的表演形式；其次則是對神話、儀式與信仰體系的長期思索。
而近年之創作主題，主要為關注信仰與史詩的當代轉化、技術哲學的反思、身體與科技的交纏關係，以及人與自然萬物間那種不可見的微妙聯繫。並透過新媒體與形而上之語彙，試圖為這些概念賦予感官的入口。」
Artist Biography
Huginn C. (b. 1994, HK) is a Taipei-based artist and MFA candidate at TNUA. His practice, rooted in photography and Abstract Expressionism, integrates installation, sound, and code to explore the translation of faith and ritual. Drawing on twenty years as a musician and early service as an altar boy, he navigates the entanglement between technology, the body, and the natural world, giving sensory form to the invisible connections of humanity.
Artist Statement
" My artistic journey began with painting, deeply influenced by an early encounter with Abstract Expressionism. This exploration of abstract forms first manifested in my paintings and later extended into photography. Behind the lens, I explored abstract textures, the interplay of light and shadow, and the capturing of atmospheres. This early pursuit of visual purity, combined with my upbringing in a religious environment, Specific experiences—from understanding the physicality of ritual while serving as an altar boy, to contemplating the concept of 'transformation' during Holy Communion, and delving into the epic structures and symbolism of biblical narratives—have become a unique lens through which I see the world and create my work. Guided me to contemplate the world from multiple sensory and philosophical perspectives.
Today, my practice spans installation, sound, code, and performance, yet it revolves around a few constant pillars. The first is my two-decade background as a musician, which drives me to continuously explore new forms of performance. The second is my long-standing inquiry into mythology, ritual, and systems of belief.
Consequently, my core focus lies in the contemporary translation of faith and epic narratives, a reflection on the philosophy of technology, the entanglement of the body and technology, and the subtle, invisible connections between humanity and the natural world. Through the language of new media, I seek to give sensory form to these abstract concepts. "
