譚綽琳生於1993年香港，喜歡帶遺棄物回工作室聊天，久而久之物料也想「成為什麼」。她情感多多，常藉故發揮傷春悲秋，說要縫製生活現實並擁抱脆弱作為人類的本質。她是個創作著眼於「失敗」卻無法面對失敗的藝術家，她的作品親密、頹廢、易於收納、方便攜帶、不太長久，她希望從作品中學習不完美，並與世界進行協商。

她目前於荷蘭Frank Mohr Institute 修讀繪畫碩士課程，有時站在垃圾桶前，還被貓叫停。2018年畢業於中文大學藝術系，她通過無聊的工作使自己快樂。

Born in Hong Kong 1993, Jessie plays a game of intimacy, wherein everything is fragile, child-like, low-brow, and not meant to last. Listening to the unheard voice of unwanted materials, her work grows a reflexive response of “whatever they want to be at the moment”. Sewing up the holes of human feelings and filling in the gaps with life’s realities, she examines human vulnerability and reflects on the elements of being a human. Such an everyday practice to look at, and live with failure, negotiates the world on a day-to-day basis.

Currently, she is doing a Master of Fine Art programme in Painting at the Frank Mohr Institute, standing in front of free shelves, and sometimes stopping by a cat. Graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong (Fine Art) in 2018, she makes herself happy by doing silly work.

我將要失去邂逅、捕捉、追逐的小瞬間

如何在不拍照的情況下捕捉傷疤

從擁有一門因藝術創作而學會的技藝，到失去一個無法捕捉的瞬間，我們回到用手藝，用自己研發出來的技藝，去追尋那曾經失去的瞬間：如何在不拍照的情況下捕捉傷疤？

我的傷疤是怎麽出現的？

1. 不小心打碎了一個爐子
2. 不小心被破爐弄傷了
3. 修好後，我的手指得到了很多星星
4. 仔細觀察它們
5. 那些碎玻璃在我的手上畫了很多個十字
6. 某種程度上來說，它很美，但我沒有心情去拍照
7. 我在想，如果我是一個很想去記錄一切的藝術家，這次真的不成因為我根本不想記錄。我為什麽要為將來的項目拍照片？

下面是我的步驟：

1. 在蠟紙上畫出一個4R照片大小的相框
2. 搜索以前畫過像手的畫作
3. 用尖銳的鉛筆畫出DIY手套
4. 將蠟紙磨擦成傷疤/星星
5. 用粉彩粉擦拭星星，使血跡可見
6. 每當我感覺到一些鉛筆的痕跡，我很喜歡
7. 想用多點蠟紙試試
8. 畫一個更大的手套圖，並重覆1-7
9. 剪出紙手套和4R相框
10. 為他們找一個地方
11. 噴漆用的塑料布似乎很合適
12. 尋找與之相匹配的膠紙來貼起蠟紙
13. 感覺玻璃纖維不好，但做防蟲網的膠紙好像不錯
14. 在塑料布上發現孔
15. 擦掉它們，將洞口打一個結
16. 他們最後看起來更像星星

我在手上造了星星，但並非以藝術之命而捕捉它

玻璃割傷手指變成星星
無法在受傷時拍照
痊癒後憶起傷痛
嘗試憶起它更誠實

Encountering, Capturing, Chasing of Little Moments I Gonna Lose It

How to trace a scar without taking photos

From having a skill developed through art-making to losing a moment that cannot be captured, we go back to the point of using craftsmanship, and our self-developed skills to trace the moment we once lost: How to capture a scar without taking photos?

How do my scars appear?

1. Broke a stove accidentally
2. Hurt me with the broken stove accidentally
3. After fixing it, my fingers got a lot of stars
4. Look very closely at them
5. The little broken glass drew crosses on my hand
6. It was somehow beautiful but I had no mood to take photos
7. I was thinking, if I am an artist who is so urged to record everything, it may not be too honest for this time because I don’t want to record.Why should I take a photo for a future project?

Here are the steps I made:

1. Draw a frame like a 4R photo on wax paper
2. Search for drawings made before that look like a hand
3. Draw a DIY gloves protocol with a sharp pencil
4. Scrap the wax paper to make scar/stars
5. Rub the stars with pastel powder to make the blood be seen
6. Whenever I feel some pencil marking, which I like a lot
7. Want to have some more wax paper to try
8. Make a bigger gloves drawing and repeat 1-7
9. Cut out the paper gloves and the 4R photo-like drawing
10. Find a place for them
11. The plastic sheet for painting seems suitable
12. Search for a tape that matches with it to stick the wax paper
13. Feel that fibreglass is not good but tape for insect net is nice
14. Discover hole on the plastic sheet
15. Erase them by making a knot of the hole
16. They look like stars in the end

One situation that you cannot create artwork in the past 24 months;

I made stars on my hand and I am not capturing it for the sake of art

No way in get hurt time while to take photos
no way for art to go over feelings
when recover after memorizing
trying trying to remember it more honest
