藝術家介紹
Artist Introduction

Thais Suguiyama 為居住於巴西聖保羅的視覺藝術家與動態設計師，畢業於聖保羅大學視覺藝術系。其創作實踐橫跨純藝術、平面設計與動畫，並延伸至多元領域與脈絡。在創作軌跡中，作品深受集體經驗形塑，並長期參與如 Firma Gráfica 及 Depois do Fim da Arte 等團體的合作計畫。

透過拼貼與影像挪用，Thais 將印刷品、平面圖像與工業媒材結合並應用於結構體上，藉此重構其視覺語言。近期的創作研究轉向物件與動畫，試圖探尋「動」與「靜」之間的模糊地帶，並以此構建獨特的場景與敘事軸線。

Thais Suguiyama is a visual artist and motion designer based in São Paulo, Brazil. Holding a degree in Visual Arts from the University of São Paulo, her practice develops at the intersection of fine arts, graphic arts, design, and animation, expanding across diverse fields and contexts.

Throughout her trajectory, her work has also been shaped by collective experiences, engaging in collaborative processes with groups such as Firma Gráfica and Depois do Fim da Arte.

Through collage and image appropriation, Thais reconfigures her visual language by combining printed, graphic, and industrial materials applied to constructed supports. More recently, her investigations with objects and animation have focused on the intersection between the animated and the inanimate, as well as on the creation of scenarios and narratives.

《蘇打大金剛》

《蘇打大金剛》是一隻以回收紙箱、布料與鐵條製作而成的等身比例可動戲偶。作品運用紙板切割、紙箱，以及瓦楞紙材本身的波浪紋理，構築出大猩猩的身體結構與表面質感，塑造出一隻強壯、充滿氣勢的大猩猩，邀請觀眾透過操控它的雙臂，讓這隻大猩猩動起來。

SODA Gorilla

SODA Gorilla is a life-sized articulated puppet made from recycled cardboard boxes, fabric, and iron rods. In this piece, cardboard cutouts, boxes, and the material’s wavy texture come together to form both the structure and the surface of a fierce, imposing gorilla that invites people to bring it to life by manipulating its arms.
