身為人,你能否感同身受動物之痛?
4月19日,就讓我們一同跟隨藝站新檔期藝術家—王鼎元的細膩鏡頭語言,批判而哲理地省思關於台灣動物園圈養的真情實景。

創作理念
王鼎元攝影個展以動物平權為核心,透過其影像與深刻編排,喚起觀者對自然永續與生命尊重的深層反思。此展匯聚藝術家王鼎元多年創作歷程精華,完整呈現《台灣愛丁堡動物園計劃》系列作品,以批判性與哲思交織的視角,回應當代社會對動物圈養與環境永續的議題。王鼎元以攝影為媒介,融合個人生命經驗與國際動物平權理念,構築出一場視覺與心靈的對話。
展覽靈感源自英國愛丁堡動物園「不圈養大象」的行動。該園以雕像取代真象,並公開說明無法提供大象所需的自然遷徙環境,因此選擇不再圈養。這種「負圈養」的理念深深觸動王鼎元,使他開始思索臺灣動物園的現況與人類對動物的態度。他走訪全臺動物園,拍攝園舍空間與光影,再以模型動物進行後製,創造出真假交錯的超現實影像,讓觀者在熟悉與陌生之間產生省思。
王鼎元的創作並非一蹴可幾。早期作品如《你眼中所見之處是我心中僅剩的藍》與《黑洞》系列,即展現他對圈養動物心理狀態的關注。他以冷色調與重複行為的捕捉,揭示動物在牢籠中所承受的孤寂與精神壓迫。這些作品不僅是視覺呈現,更是情感與倫理的訴求,直指人類對動物的無形暴力。

Can You, as Human, Feel an Animal's Pain?
Join us on April 19 for the opening of One Station's new artist program featuring WANG Ding-Yuan. Through his exquisitely nuanced lens, witness a profound, critical, and philosophical meditation on the stark realities of animal captivity in Taiwan's zoos.

Statement
WANG Ding-Yuan’s photographic exhibitions center on animal rights, using carefully constructed imagery to evoke deeper reflection on environmental sustainability and respect for life. This exhibition brings together years of Wang’s artistic practice and presents The Taiwan Edinburgh Zoo Project series, which responds to contemporary issues of animal captivity and environmental sustainability through a critical and philosophical perspective. Using photography as his medium, Wang combines personal life experiences with international animal rights concepts to construct a dialogue between visual imagery and the human mind.
The exhibition was inspired by the Edinburgh Zoo in the UK, which chose not to keep elephants in captivity. The zoo replaced real elephants with sculptures and publicly explained that they could not provide the natural migratory environment elephants require, therefore choosing not to keep them. This concept of “negative captivity” deeply influenced Wang and led him to reflect on the situation of zoos in Taiwan and human attitudes toward animals. He visited zoos across Taiwan, photographing animal enclosures and spatial lighting, then digitally added model animals in post-production to create surreal images that blur the line between reality and fiction, prompting viewers to reflect through a sense of familiarity and estrangement.
Wang’s artistic development did not happen overnight. Earlier works such as The Blue That Remains in My Heart Is What You See and the Black Hole series already demonstrated his concern for the psychological state of captive animals. Through cool color tones and the capture of repetitive behaviors, he revealed the loneliness and psychological oppression animals endure in captivity. These works are not only visual representations but also emotional and ethical statements addressing the invisible violence humans impose on animals.

About WANG Ding-Yuan
Born in Taipei in 1978, WANG Ding-Yuan received his M.F.A. from the Department of Fine Arts at National Taiwan University of Arts. He has long been dedicated to photographic art creation and education. He currently serves as an adjunct lecturer at Oriental Institute of Technology and teaches photography courses and advises photography clubs at several high schools and universities, including Taipei Municipal Zhongshan Girls High School, actively promoting visual and photography education. His work focuses on portraiture, everyday observation, and photographic narrative. His representative series The Glow on the Face and The Taiwan Edinburgh Zoo Project have received wide attention.

His works have been exhibited at the National Center of Photography and Images, You Zhang Art Museum of National Taiwan University of Arts, Songshan Cultural and Creative Park, Huashan 1914 Creative Park, and other venues. He has also participated in numerous important domestic and international exhibitions. His works have received multiple international awards, including several honors from the International Photography Awards (IPA) and the First Prize of the TIVCA Photography Award at the Taipei Art Photo Show. He continues to deepen his photographic practice through both artistic creation and teaching.
