Between Being and Reproduction

This description of creations is typical of the works in my graduate school, dating from 2003 to 2005. Based on the theory of self-formation, the creations look back upon the past living environment to analyze the formation of ideology and to study the relationship between works, subconsciousness and memory. The creations aim to employ the issue of self-identification to integrate the works of this period and divide them into three parts “frames”, “divergence” and “interface” and analyze related theories to achieve the aim of self-identification for this study.

This paper bases the study of thoughts of self-identification on the explorations of philosophy and psychiatric analysis and cites Paul Ricoeur’s classification of identification to look at self-identification writing from the perspective of linguistics. Besides, this study will use a decomposition approach to search for the voice of oneself in hubbub and confirm the orientation and attitude of creation and further to create works of identification appropriate from the perspective of oneself. Although this study starts out from self-identification, the forms of creative arts and contents are not only related to one’s life but also reflect various kinds of influence the surrounding social culture exercises on identification at a cultural level through one’s living experiences.

In individual creations, the works chiefly take the form of videotaping and will give a detailed explanation for the dynamic process of the transformation of identification through retrospective analysis of self-creations. In the “frames” series, we will look for the framework of thoughts for narcissistic creation through the psychoanalysis of earlier works, and thereafter we embark on the “divergence” series. At the second stage of “divergence” explorations, we dwell on the reflections gained from our environment, make attempts at creation from the perspective of existent scenarios in language learning and discover the blurred boundary between oneself and others through metacognitive introspection. At the last stage which integrates the previous two series, we embark on the “interface” creation through narcissistic mechanism, transform works into “interface” to present reemergent creations of identification and push creations of identification toward explorations of interaction between inner and outer space.
