氹仔城區文化協會獨家呈獻葡美裔攝影藝術家雨果特謝拉（Hugo Teixeira）全新攝影展《疊影重重》，這是雨果特謝拉第二次於氹仔舊城區藝術空間舉辦個人展。

特謝拉透過是次展覽，試圖把其家人在70年代從葡萄牙移民到加州後失去的歷史和文化意識重新拼湊。他的圖像創作呈現了他在加州叢林和葡萄牙蒙塔多旅行時精心攝製的風景照片重疊在一起對照。這樣一來，現在和過去就成為了互相詮釋的鏡頭。

?策展人序言?

藝術家雨果特謝拉的《疊影重重》試圖把其家人在70年代從葡萄牙移民到加州後失去的歷史和文化意識重新拼湊。與特謝拉一樣，移民者的子女往往背負駕馭兩種文化的期望，卻沒有父母的記憶和在祖國出生成長的聯繫，也沒有太多適應新國家和文化的指導。他們反而時常透過故事、媒體、旅行以及基本的反複試驗，把有關兩種文化的知識拼湊在一起。

為了反映這現象，特謝拉透過發現一個匿名家庭攝於革命前葡萄牙的一批照片，回想起自己家庭故事的人物和背景，並不自覺地喚起了對過去的回憶（馬塞爾·普魯斯特的非自主記憶）。他把這些照片與他在加州叢林和葡萄牙蒙塔多旅行時精心攝製的風景照片重疊在一起對照。這樣一來，現在和過去就成為了互相詮釋的鏡頭。

特謝拉使用蒙太奇手法把照片融合，使人聯想到19世紀的風景攝影師。他們結合了互不相關的陸地和天空照片，創造出單次曝光無法實現的和諧構圖。是次展覽展示的圖像是從數以千計的構圖中提煉出來的幾個令人回味的例子。此技術反映了在沒有太多指導下學習駕馭兩種文化的反複試驗，但最終透過學習融合兩者而找到在家的感覺。

?Involuntary Landscapes – New Photography Works by Hugo Teixeira?

Taipa Village Cultural Association exclusively showcases a unique photography exhibition entitled “Involuntary Landscapes”, presented by Luso-American photographic artist Hugo Teixeira who hosts his second show at Taipa Village Art Space.

The exhibition interprets Teixeira’s attempts to piece together a historical and cultural consciousness lost when his family emigrated from Portugal and settled in California in the 70’s. The artistic collection reflects the result of a number of crafted landscape photos from his travels in the California chaparral and the Portuguese montado. In doing so, the present and past serve as lenses through which the other is interpreted.

?Curator’s Statement?

Involuntary Landscapes interprets artist Hugo Teixeira’s attempts to piece together a historical and cultural consciousness lost when his family emigrated from Portugal and settled in California in the 70’s. Like the artist, the children of migrants are often expected to function in two cultures without their parents’ memories and birth connection to their home countries and without much guidance in adapting to a new country and culture. Instead, they often piece together knowledge about both cultures from stories, media, travel and by basic trial and error.

Reflecting this phenomenon, the found photos of an anonymous family in pre-revolutionary Portugal recall the characters and settings of his own family’s stories and evoke recollections of the past without conscious effort (Marcel Proust’s involuntary memories). He juxtaposes these with deliberately crafted landscape photos from his travels in the California chaparral and the Portuguese montado. In so doing, the present and past serve as lenses through which the other is interpreted.

Teixeira fuses the photographs using a montage process reminiscent of 19th-century landscape photographers who combined unrelated photos of land and sky to create harmonious compositions not achievable in a single exposure. The images presented in this exhibition distill thousands of compositions to just a few evocative examples. The technique reflects the trials and errors of learning to navigate two cultures without much guidance but ultimately learning to feel at home in a blend of both.
