Gaze
“When I gaze at her, she also gazes at me, creating a non-physical spiritual distance. The forever gaze, the forever wait.”
“Gaze”, apart from “seeing”, means prolonged and focused viewing. The term is widely used in psychology and sociology as the relation between viewer and those being viewed.
To me, “Gaze” originates from film, a camera filming a character gazing at someone and something, and I am also gazing at characters on the screen, each projecting emotions, in which this delicate relation needs no words.
In our lives, when we gaze at insignificant objects, in turn discover that they seem to gaze at us as well, an even stronger gaze than we could imagine. Such imagination is essential in our lives, because there is always someone and something gazing at us and projects emotions, only that we are ignorant of that.
物凝視
「當我凝視她時,我也被她所凝視,產生了一種非物理的精神距離。永遠的凝視,永遠的等待。」
「凝視」除了是指一種“觀看”的行為,意指長時間與專注的觀望。這一詞的延伸廣泛用於心理學及社會學中觀者與被觀者的關係。
對於我而言,「凝視」是源於電影,一個鏡頭拍攝著某角色正在注視著一些人和事,而我也凝視著螢幕中的角色,各自投射一些情感,這種關係是微妙,也不需要對白。
生活中,我們去注視一些極不起眼的事物時,發現了他們也好像凝視著我們,而且比我們想像中堅定。這一種想像,在我們生活的世界是必須,原因是總有一些人和事正在注視我們和投射一些情感,只是我們無知而讓我們不得而知。
