【乾坤 Qian Kun】
原先已經準備好這套衣服以及我認為很重要的主題，
在 Aqua Challenge 決戰水下伸展台 準決賽使用，
但一直覺得很可惜沒能進到準決賽將這套衣服的理念放上節目，所幸各路朋友們毫不猶豫的相助，特別是Yorko 陪著我共同完成出這個作品。
最後一張放上我們隨手拍攝動態剪出來的短版Teaser。

從表演藝術的角度來看，
「性別」不是一種二元對立的存在。
我們經歷了許多次的賦權革命，如今，性別二字，已經不再是定義任何人的框架。
這次拍攝，將主題溯源到戲曲文化；從元朝開始，戲曲表演的虛擬性，讓男性飾演女角、女性詮釋男角，「乾旦坤生」四字便開啟了性別對立的轉型。因此把造型設定為頭頂花旦鳳冠，臉施花旦妝，下身卻是戰甲，手拿大旗。用雌雄同體的概念，呈現出乾、坤，陰、陽共處調和的無限感。
一個人的獨特，是集合了來自千萬種相互矛盾元素的總和，跨越了性別對立的限制，才會讓我們看到愛無限，愛最大的迷人面貌。
From the point of performing art.
"Gender" is not a dualistic existence.
We have gone through many empowerment revolutions over the years. Today, the word gender is no longer the most important identity that defines an indivdual.
The concept of this photography is first traced back to Chinese opera, which could be the first in our culture to initiated the transformation of gender opposition. Since the Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368), the virtual nature of opera performances allowed men to play female roles and women to interpret male roles. The phrase ”Qian Dan Kun Sheng” proves such tradition exists. “Qian” 乾, heaven, usually indicates male, “Dan”, 旦, female characters in drama. “Kun”, 坤, ground, usually indicates female. “Sheng” 生, the male characters. The phrase tells that female characters could be played by male performers and male characters could be played by female performers.
We designed the look following this concept. Wearing a phoenix crown (headwear designed for female roles) on the top of the head, female face makeup is applied, but the items for the lower body is a male’s battle armor, holding a battle banner in hand. Using the concept of hermaphroditism, it presents an infinite sense of harmony between Qian and Kun (heaven and earth), Ying and Yang (positive and negative).
The uniqueness of a person is a collection of thousands of contradictory elements. And to move beyond the restriction of gender duality and opposition, is how we will see the infinite power and the most charming face of love.
