從2013年開始，宜德思展開「跳島創作計劃」。 陸續拜訪了復活節島、夏威夷、關島、紐西蘭等，展開探索自我身份的精神旅程，在作品中關注南島語系的族群中，島對島、族群對族群、人對人、人對土地的情感連結，創作出一系列與族群身份、族群認同、土地改革、環境破壞、圖騰與文字脈絡為靈感的作品，在尋覓的過程中表達出對族群的關壞，同時也確立自我對文化的認同。 宜德思・盧信參與多次國際藝術駐村計畫與國內外展覽，創作與生活持續不綴，2019年於台北學學文創完成「跳島、幻島、天河」大型展覽，是台灣當代最為出色的原住民藝術家。 - Since 2013, Idas has launched the “Island Hopping Project”, which she has successively visited Rapa Nui (Easter Island), Hawaii, Guam, New Zealand etc., starting a spiritual journey towards a greater understanding of her own identity. Idas’ paintings focus mostly on the Austronesian-speaking people’s emotional connections between island-to-island, group-to-group, people-to-people, and people-to-land. The talented artist created a variety of works inspired by indigenous identity, land reform, environmental degradation, totems, tattoos, woven patterns and so on. Her considerable concern over the indigenous community and recognition for her own culture is fully portrayed through art during this project. Participating in many international Artist-in-Residence projects, international joint exhibitions, and domestic exhibitions, she also held a large-scale solo exhibition named “Island Hopping, Fantasy and Milky Way” with XUE XUE FOUNDATION in 2019. As one of the most outstanding contemporary indigenous artists, Idas’ life of artistic creation continues.

本次展覽中選擇墨鏡系列的幾幅作品、身上刺有帶著族群印記的女子、墨鏡反射出旅行途中所見之他族原住民圖騰、運用原住民傳統編織文化融合其藝術天賦的軟雕塑，大膽趣味的族群文化意象探討。同為身於南島後代 – 除了文化根源上的連結外，不同文化間的對照反思，令人更確定自我身份的主體性。 2020年初，在台灣最具歷史的一條街，香火鼎盛的廟宇、生龍活虎的市場邊上能夠辦本次的展覽，別具深意。這是宜德思・盧信和F Studio一同獻給大稻埕的一份禮物，藉此我們得以跨界一同對話（畫），持續地探索原住民、漢族、南島世界中的他方與自己。 誠摯歡迎各位一同進入宜德思・盧信的世界 - In the《Islands Colors Humanity》exhibition, several paintings of the sunglasses series and totem/woven pattern series are selected– women’s arms and bodies with ethnic tattoos, other indigenous totems reflected in a traveler’s sunglasses. Also, a soft sculpture will be exhibited. Interestingly and boldly, combining the traditional weaving culture of indigenous people with her artistic talent, Idas start to discuss another ethnic imagery and explore a brand-new path based on her indigenous tradition. At the beginning of 2020, it is meaningful that the《Islands Colors Humanity》exhibition can be held in Taiwan’s most historic district, between a lively local market and a incense-filled temple flocked by crowds. As a gift presented by Idas Losin and F studio to Dadaocheng, we are pleased to invite community conversations to facilitate cross-sector collaboration. Also, we encourage everyone to continuously explore themselves through indigenous people of Taiwan, Han people and Austronesian-speaking people. Sincerely welcome every one of you into Idas Losin’s world.
