真實與虛擬空間中的女性樣態

Abstract

本文將從歷史背景、文化脈絡、當代社會研究與藝術作品的角度進行梳理與論述。第一章將說明本研究的動機與方法，作為全文的基礎。自第二章起，將以空間與空間觀之間的關係為切入點，探討「具像化的虛擬社會」對人類認知與生活方式所造成的影響。現代社會中，人們透過書籍、網路等多元媒介獲取知識，並從科學、人文、社會等不同層面反思自身所處的環境。若將身體視為一個固定、實體的結構體，則「媒體」便成為塑造當代世界觀想像的重要力量。自工業革命以來，經濟與科技迅速發展，其帶來的變革同時伴隨著混沌與曖昧的雙重特性。第三章將延續第二章對空間的討論，進一步探究真實空間與虛擬空間的交錯如何影響人們的生活與思想轉變。第三章中透過歷史中以男性為主體的社會體制，來探討臺灣女性意識的興起，並以筆者所感受到的當代女性氛圍來進行議題的探討。第四章則聚焦於觀看、幻想、偽裝與整形等行為，來驗證當代女性自我認同的行為模式，本章節中也將列舉透過具有象徵性符號或行為藝術的作品來進一步驗證當代女性在現代社會的如何保持或重新建構自我認同，並進一步探討當代女性在虛擬環境（特別是社群媒體）中所面臨的壓力與挑戰。第五章與第六章為筆者的創作說明，包含說明其創作所使用的媒材、技法與描繪主題。透過其作品中對都市生活中個體內在狀態的描繪，特別是以年輕女性為主角的題材，探討當代女性在都市化環境中尋找自我定位的過程，以及人與都市空間之間的矛盾與融合關係。This study will be organized and discussed through the lenses of historical context, cultural framework, contemporary social research, and artistic works. Chapter One outlines the research motivation and methodology, establishing the foundation for the entire paper. Beginning with Chapter Two, the discussion will explore the relationship between space and spatial perception, examining the impact of a " visualized virtual society" on human cognition and lifestyles. In contemporary society, individuals acquire knowledge through various media such as books and the Internet, and reflect upon their environment from scientific, humanistic, and social perspectives. If the body is regarded as a fixed, tangible structure, then the"media" plays a crucial role in shaping contemporary worldviews. Since the Industrial Revolution, rapid economic and technological development has produced transformations, often accompanied by a dual nature of chaos and ambiguity. Chapter Three will build upon the discussion of space in Chapter Two, further exploring how the interplay between reality and virtual spaces influences people’s lives and transformations in thought. This chapter examines the rise of female’s consciousness in Taiwan within the context of historically male-dominated social structures and reflects on contemporary female perspectives as perceived by the author.Chapter Four focuses on acts of viewing, fantasizing, disguising, and cosmetic surgery to analyze patterns of self-identification among contemporary women. This chapter also presents artworks—particularly those employing symbolic signs or performance art—to further examine how contemporary women maintain or reconstruct self-identity in modern society. It extends the discussion to the pressures and challenges women face in virtual environments, especially on social media platforms. Chapter Fiveand Six present the author’s creative works, including explanations of the materials, techniques, and subjects used. Through depictions of individual inner states within urban life—especially works centered on young female protagonists—the chapters explore how contemporary women seek self-positioning in an urbanized environment and investigate the contradictions and integration between individuals and urban space.
