展览 | “手掌上的宝石”，小林敬生木口木刻的微观宇宙

原初是黑暗

刺破它，便有光的绽现

集合的光，聚成危险而骚动无定的土地

在黑暗的天空里浮悬

The origin is darkness

Once punctured, light would emanate from within

Lights gather to take the form of a tempestuous land

Levitating in the dark skies

黑鸟圆瞪着眼

裸露的肉体将身影深潜

没有音乐的夜，混沌与紊乱

The black bird stares with its round eyes

Concealing its exposed flesh

A night without music, chaotic and tumultuous

管道和圆球和不明屋宇

被掩埋于根茎叶的交错纠缠

虚伪的花丛绽放着谎言

邪恶精气弥漫于地面

Pipelines and spheres and unknown houses

Buried within woven roots, stems and leaves

Deceptive bushes blossom with lies

A malicious spirit veils and swallows the ground

此处或许是天的港湾

无音乐之夜的、危险港湾

悬浮于天的、没有码头的禁忌的港湾

Here could lie the harbor of heavens

A harbor of danger and without nights of music

A harbor that levitates in the sky and without a pier

海市蜃楼般朦胧

远方那相连的城市剪影

向着天空奋力挣扎

是草原上的树林

The silhouette of cities hover in the distance

Hazy like a mirage

As forests on the plains

Struggle to reach the sky

是老树抵抗死亡的最后舞姿

还是那响彻睥睨荒海白涛的、

鬼魅般黑色巨树顶冠的怒吟

Is it the final dance as the old tree fights back death

Or the angry whispers of the giant ghost-like black trees

That roared through the sounds of crashing waves

四亿年前的鱼在天上淡淡地显形

就像远处城市的楼影

它是不在此处与此刻的幻象

反反复复地忽现忽隐

Faint apparitions of 400 million-year-old fish have appeared in the sky

Just like shadows of cities in the distance

It is a mirage that exists neither here nor at this moment

It disappears then reappears, on repeat

注视着这并非此处的某处、

和并非此时的某时的

是并非我自己的某个生灵……

Staring at somewhere that is not here,

And at a time that is not now

Is a soul that is not I…

树，曾经是精气充盈的混沌大观

曾经是家屋街道城市，也是乐园

所有生灵群栖此间

那时的大地上，没有争端和相残

Trees, once a thriving magnificent sight of utter chaos

Were once houses, streets, cities, and paradise

Where all souls rested

There were no feuds or conflicts on earth then

但在某一天

所有居民都落脚地面

看树上还开放着花朵一如从前

地面上则自此争斗不断

But one day

As all residents’ feet were planted on the ground

They watched as trees bloomed once again

And conflicts on earth have never since ceased

而那耽乐的裸妇于今也依然隐身于树干

盘根错节的官能被隔断

如同禁忌一般

And that gleeful nude woman has since been hiding within the tree trunks

Those interwoven sensory organs have been severed

As if it were a taboo

树是诱惑我们的陷阱

是秘藏着情爱的危险乐园

哦、憧憬美丽的花朵们的恶之欲念……

Trees are a trap that lure us

A forbidden paradise of hidden love and affection

Oh, the evil desires of flowers that crave beauty so…

那一天，森林突然不见了去向

都以为它是去了天上

远方云朵下，那林木的淡淡身影

想来是还残存在地面的树木幻象

The forest suddenly vanished without a trace on that day

It looked like the forest had gone up to the skies

The faint shadows of trees tucked underneath clouds in the distance

But it turned out to be phantoms of trees that once were

都说森林曾经将都市吞噬

又为何消失于大地之上

众多议论纷纷攘攘

却无人能给出确定的主张

If the forest had once engulfed a city

Then why did it vanish from the face of the earth

As speculations and theories surface

No one had a definitive answer

然而今天！瘴气弥漫的密林之舟登场

哦，别问为何会这样

那密林之舟就这样出现在破败都市的天空之上

Yet today! The raft of dense forests riding an air of miasma has arrived

Oh, do not ask how it transpired

The raft of dense forests appears in the skies of a city in ruins

被树木掩埋的塔、偷窥的年轻人、蹲着的姑娘

载着大地上曾经的存在

天上的森林如今化身为密林方舟

迷失了归去的方向

The tower that has been buried under trees, the young voyeur, and the girl crouching down

They carry the existence that once was on earth

Forests in the skies have now transformed to become the raft of dense forests

Unable to find its way back

如果根在天里

真实也会被质疑

正义会被颠覆

如果根在天里

If roots were up in the heavens

The reality would have been doubted

Justice would be upturned

If roots were up in the heavens

如果现在根在地里

危险的美将毁灭

难解之谜将会被忘记

如果根在地里

If roots were in the ground now

The beauty of danger would be demolished

The enigma would be forgotten

Had the roots been deep beneath the ground

看啊

隐藏着邪恶之眼的无数根须，垂落于天际

摇摆、震颤、纠结、扭曲

Look

Those endless roots that fall from the heavens have concealed the evil eye

Shaking, trembling, tangled, distorted

是的，真实再消亡，正义被忘记

危险之美正怒放，难解之谜正丛生不息

现在的根，正在犯着长在天里的过失

原因在这里

Yes, reality has withered, justice has been forgotten

The beauty of danger is in full bloom, and the enigma lives on

The roots are now making the mistake of growing up in the heavens

Here lies the reason

龟裂的宇宙之卵悬浮在昏暗的星空之间

波涛起伏、森林浩瀚

毒花浅染五彩

这承载着地上乐园记忆的龟裂宇宙之卵

The ruptured embryo of the universe floats amongst dimmed stars

Waves roll and crash, the green of the forests

Poisonous flowers are embellished with soft hues

This is the ruptured embryo of the universe carrying memories of paradise on earth

波涛有一双窥视的巨眼

回看观者的女人之眼

据说是被逐出昔日乐园的夏娃的视线

我们观看，也被回看

A large set of eyes peek out from beyond the crashing waves

The eyes of a woman who looks back at the viewer

It is said to be Eve, who was banished from paradise

We watch and are watched

那或许是传说中曾经统辖密林的

年轻亚马逊族之眼

再度君临这龟裂的破败星球的女人的视线

Those could be the eyes of the young Amazonians

Who once ruled the forests

And they have again appeared in the sight of the woman on this ruptured planet in ruins

亚玛利亚、阿玛利亚、奥利皮亚……

不畏惧任何圣名的女人

从乐园记忆的彼方回看我们的，那一双巨眼

Amaria, Amaliyah, Oripiya…

The woman who shan’t be afraid of holy names

Whose large eyes watched us from across the memories of paradise
