作品介紹

傳統的「銅鑼」及「吵仔」由一塊平直的黃銅片經「打銅佬」數千下不斷鎚敲，打成可以發聲的工具，常見於廟宇及傳統節慶巡遊之中。在本地鍛敲工藝日漸衰落的今天，陳寶鋒認為聲音作為一種媒介，可以帶觀眾回到過去的想象前人的生活。 

本作品以音樂盒原理製作，讓參加者可在裝置上創作出屬於自己的節奏，來一場銅器與金屬器物和而不同的合奏。

"Gongs" are crafted from flat pieces of brass that undergo thousands of hammer forging by skilled bronze workers, resulting in sound-producing tools commonly found in Chinese temples and traditional festival parades. Nowadays where local blacksmithing craftsmanship is on the decline, Chan Po Fung holds the belief that sound, as a medium, possesses the ability to transport the audience to the bygone days and inspire them to envision the lives of their ancestors.

This artwork draws inspiration from the principles of a music box. Participants are invited to create their own rhythms on the device, fostering a harmonious yet distinct ensemble by utilising a combination of copper and metal objects.
