簡介/Synopsis

巫萊原名法蘭克‧烏威‧雷茲朋，1943年出生於在索林根。他在1975年錄影記錄，他最早的「光影圖像表演」創作之一。幽暗的空間之中，事實上是由紅光所照明，攝影機捕捉了隱約能夠分辨出站在攝影布幕背景前的一名女人。突然之間，閃光燈亮了一下。房間被瞬間照成了白色， 巫萊一身白衣出現，在畫上塗抹顯影劑。漸漸地，女人的陰影顯現出白色的輪廓，同時其他部分則為黑色。這個白色的輪廓區域跟巫萊的身形在片刻之間又合在一起，就好像他消失在他自己剛剛製作出的圖像裡一般。

Ulay, born as Frank Uwe Laysiepen in Solingen in 1943, documented one of his first photogramme performances on video in 1975. The space is darkened. In actual fact, it is illuminated with red light, so that the camera can make out the outline of a woman standing up against a photo screen. Suddenly a photoflash goes off. For a second, the space glows white. Ulay appears dressed completely in white and spreads developer fluid across the picture. The shadow of the woman slowly appears as a white outline, whilst everything else remains dark. In turn, Ulay fits himself for a moment into this white outline in such a way that he seems to disappear in his own, just produced picture.
