■ 展覽簡介

「鄉愁」一直是當代各類型文本如文學、戲劇、電影、影集，甚至是政治語彙裡最受歡迎的元素之一。「祖國」、「故土」、「光榮的歲月」、「輝煌的歷史」、「讓我們再次偉大」，這些熟悉的政治修辭不僅提醒我們美好的過去與失落的當下之間令人沮喪的對比，並進一步吸引我們投身於國族敘事中，召喚超人的利維坦巨靈、改變現狀。

然而，倘若考慮到台灣與香港的歷史脈絡與現況，我們會發現這個國族情感運作機制其實更加複雜：鄉愁不只是一種政治語彙，也不只是劃分他/我的工具；它同時也是一種與原生家庭的連繫期盼、一種對於殘酷現狀的傷感與無奈，以及個體主動與土地的親切連結⋯。

「鄉愁是一面飄揚的旗」台灣香港錄像展，藉由橫跨20年的兩地藝術家錄像作品，不僅呈現台灣社會裡跨越世代的認同紛爭，也描述香港這些年來的認同型塑與轉變。

然後我們知道，面對惡政，鄉愁將不再只是個人情感，而是一面飄揚的旗。

Introduction｜

The concept of nostalgia appears extensively in various forms of cultural products––literature, cinema, commercial advertisements, and even in politics—in a variety of terms and phrases, including “mother country”, “homeland”, “glorious past”, “magnificent history”, and “let’s be great again”, to name a few. Such rhetoric not only reminds us of the depressing contrast between a seemingly marvelous past and, by comparison, seemingly miserable present but also allures us into a passionate devotion to nationalism that induces us to summon Hobbes’s Leviathan to amend the status quo.

However, a closer look at the situations in Taiwan and Hong Kong reveals how complicated the interrelationship between wishful longing and nationalism indeed is. Nostalgia is not merely a political term nor a tool for classifying oneself in relation to others. On top of that, it is also a yearning for mutual understanding and for close connection with one’s original family, a frustrating expression of despair and hopefulness, and an individual’s initiative to strive to establish an intimate, affable linkage with land.

By virtue of the video works made in the past two decades by artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan, the exhibition not only addresses the dispute over identity across generations in Taiwanese society but also depicts the ongoing transformation and reconstruction of identity in Hong Kong over the years. Ultimately, it reveals that in the face of totalitarianism, nostalgia will no longer be simply a personal feeling but a waving flag that calls for solidarity.
