《後設_面貌》為德國藝術家尤根‧陶凡與絲薇雅.諾南馬謝的共同影像創作。在創作手法上,此件影像作品以相對低限的方式,利用一支筆及墨水作畫於信紙大小的紙張上,再行轉化為影像作品。

在作品中,藝術家們觀察了現今人們對於數位世界的迷戀與成癮。藉由種種的社交媒體和設備,我們被重新規範辨別、被監控、被滲透及操作成為網路依存者,為不知名的數位收成努力開採著。除此之外,藝術家試圖揭開人與人之間因之而產生的明顯疏離,進一步提問在技術的愈發進步下,人與技術間主客關係是否在逐漸互換。而未來,人是否可能成為人型的數位體為技術所服膺而服務?

Meta_Face is a collaborative video work by Jurgen Trautwein and Silvia Nonnenmacher. On the creative methodology, the video work employed a relatively low-end approach, drawings on letter-size paper with pen and ink before converted into video.

In the work, the artists observe the obsessions and addictions to the digitalized world from the people nowadays. Through various social media and devices, we are re-categorized and discriminated, being spied, infiltrated, and manipulated as Internet dependents, exploiting hard for unknown digital harvest. In addition, the artists attempt to uncover the physical detachness among people, inquiring further if the subordinative relationship between technology and human is reversing in the advancement of technology. Is it possible for humans to become homo digitalis that serves technology in the future?
