那是隱隱的不安與弔詭的日常。
在《喚》（Awakening）互動裝置作品中，人失去科技產物「操控者」的身份，現實物理空間與機械自相產生影響，而觀者僅止於純粹接收的存在。 此作品為現地製作，在建築落地窗外設置似於樹枝的機械並敲擊玻璃窗，在撞擊與摩擦玻璃窗的同時，使建築空間內產生了共鳴。
It’s a subtle unease and paradoxical daily life.
In the interactive installation piece Awakening, humans lose their status as the “controllers” of technological products, the physical reality and machinery affect each other, and the viewer is merely a passive recipient. This work is site-specific, with machinery resembling tree branches set up outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the building to tap against the glass. The striking and friction with the window create a resonance within the architectural space.

現為自由藝術創作者，創作多以探究人類、自然與科技間的異質性，涵括現實、虛擬與真實間的關係，並同時對於自身所處時代及未來進行反思與探問。創作媒材不限，以實驗影像與互動裝置擴展至當代藝術，著重於相關媒介如何運用以及由誰操控之問題意識，並將個人經驗與群體意識重新編織與建構。
作品曾獲《第十一届FIRST青年電影展》最佳實驗片、《2018高雄獎》首獎、《第24屆ifva獨立短片及影像媒體比賽》金獎、《第41&43屆金穗獎》最佳學生實驗片、《第十九屆台新藝術獎》提名等。
Currently working as a freelance artist, Hu’s art practice mainly explores the heterogeneity between technology, human memory and perception, including the relationship between reality, virtuality and what is actually real. At the same time, she reflects and ponders over the current era and the future by using experimental images, Internet technology and interactive devices to expand in the various possibilities of artistic creation.
Many of Hu’s works involve using technology in reverse, focusing on the awareness of problems such as how relevant media is used and who controls it, while reweaving and reconstructing personal experiences and group consciousness.
Hu Ching-Chuan has previously won ‘Best Experimental Work’ at the ‘FIRST International Film Festival’, ‘First Prize’ at the ‘2018 Kaohsiung Awards’, ‘Gold Award’ at ‘The 24th ifva Festival’ in Hongkong, ‘Student Work / Best Experimental Work’ at ‘The 41st and 43th Golden Harvest Awards for Outstanding Short Films’ and was nominated for ‘The 19th Taishin Arts Award’.
