望而生畏卻又無法自拔的著迷,『異形之父』H.R. 吉格爾是近代相當具有指標意義的超現實主義畫家、雕塑家,其獨一無二的生物機械美學喚醒潛意識裡最原始深層的恐懼,更改變了科幻電影的發展脈絡。
擁有動物形體與無機物結構的嗜血異形,醜陋、濕黏、晦暗,卻又是比人類更趨近完美的生命體,隱匿於猶如新藝術風格筆觸般繁複壯麗、卻毫無生機的石墨色巢穴裡,編織著進化至上的存亡夢魘。H.R. 吉格爾在虛構的近未來宇宙中暗藏著對於宗教、哲學、科學、以及倫理的探討,或許人類都被禁錮在自己建構的機器裡,猶如困獸,身陷無盡幽冥。

You may find it attractive or repulsive, H.R. Giger’s bio-mechanical aesthetic blended the organic shapes of animals with elements of hardware, in pursuance of conveying the dark side of human’s inner journey of the subconscious- As we are all part of the machines that we’ve created, and we alienated ourselves within.
