Guerrilla Language - Summer Youth Performance Project picks up from our first Guerrilla Language workshop, namely by attempting to re-engage the identity of aboriginal language through the concepts and methods of current “post-historical” contemporary art practices. Although difficult and atypical, it is rewarding to see how contemporary art’s struggle with self-definition can inspire the re-definition of aboriginal identity, by and for aboriginals.
While the last Guerrilla Language Workshop used the method of Cut-Ups as the aesthetic foundation, Guerrilla Language: Summer Youth Performance Project will draw inspiration from the concept of the Ready-made, initiated by artists such as Marcel Duchamp and further developed by artists like Andy Warhol(1). The concept of the ready-made in this particular project functions by demonstrating the agency and pliability of mediums taken from one context and re-purposed for another. In addition, FOGSTAND Gallery & Studio wants to stress the concept of authorship in regards to native iconography and imagery. Much of Native Taiwanese iconography and imagery has, not unlike Andy Warhol, has been turned into a ready-made, used to promote shopping malls, be a quick signifier for “exoticism” and “authenticity”, and be a vehicle for the tourism industry. With this project, we aim to turn the tables and use a popular and dominate contemporary icon, Minecraft, and to have it re-purposed for the use of local indigenous children.
By utilizing the popular video game, Minecraft, the project will be to construct their entire village within the virtual space. Going beyond the simple construction of buildings, streets, landmarks, and scenery, participants are encouraged to research the history of prior buildings, repair vacant or desolated properties, and also, re-imagine empty/unused spaces. Villagers are encouraged to aid the construction of this virtual village through their own stories and memories of the locations, both present and past. As the project grows, participants will possess both the enjoyment and leisure associated with the game’s initial context as well as see it change into a platform for developing a sense of duty and connection with their community. A platform that bridges young digital-natives(2) and older generations under a common concern for a sense of place, Jaili Village.
The display in the gallery will be ever changing. We hope —with the generosity of the local community— to collect photographs, maps, and other visual history to aid the participants realize the most authentic Jiali possible. Visitors will not only be able to use this project as a platform to view the history and change of a single Taiwanese village, but also see the imagination and interpretation on display as the participating children build their own sense of identity into the fabric of the village.
The project will conclude in August with a final presentation of the Minecraft Jia-Li village, both on screen and with particularly interesting sections being 3D printed.
