母亲河 王岩2015中国巡展重庆启动

5月15日，英籍华裔艺术家王岩将她在英国普利茅斯大学开展的艺术摄影项目——“母亲河”带到长江流域重要节点城市重庆。

据悉，此次展览耗时5年，围绕长江沿岸的景观、神话和价值观，成就了一段横跨中国大地6211公里史诗般的旅程。

王岩表示，从一个长期的艺术及调研项目，到一个成熟的摄影展，“母亲河”不仅揭开了亚洲最长河流的神秘面纱，更给观众带来视觉、认知和情感上的新体验。她称，“母亲河”这一概念起始于她到英国约克郡居住后对故乡中国的思念。从其他关于长江的拍摄影像中，她梳理出一种不参杂多余情感，直接源自视觉的独特方式，来表达自己对故乡的思念。

从2010年到2014年，王岩使用一台大画幅相机，用Google地图将长江等分成63个点，每两点间确切相距100公里，作品连续且有时间顺序地排列，根据江水的流向而定。跨越的广阔距离、宏大规模、以及长江的艰险条件都在王岩的作品中得到呈现。

该展于5月16日——6月5日在重庆中国三峡博物馆首展，之后将同期登陆长江黄金系列邮轮，以《流动的母亲河》作为平行展览的主题，沿江而下，于7月登陆武汉美术馆，并在9月的上海艺术影像展期间登陆上海斯沃琪和平饭店艺术中心。
