作為盛世集團子公司 － 澳門專業顧問有限公司的總監韋
嘉達先生，同時亦為專業的建築師及攝影愛好者，於創
意空間舉辦了名為「某處」個人攝影作品展，展覽日期
由2月8日至3月17日。擁有著不同的身份，韋先生是確
確切切的藝術熱愛者，讓我們透過與他的訪問培養藝術 Q:
感。
A:

Q: Why do you call the exhibition “Somewhere”?
A: The exhibition shows 22 photos of the series “Somewhere”, the name of the exhibition is “Somewhere” as the photo
is not focusing on specific places, they might be taken anywhere and somewhere I got the feelings or reflect what I felt
emotionally in silence. I am not titling the photo as it is not about Macau, Hong Kong or any other places as I just want
to reflect and express the feeling when I capture a landscape, a building or so on. This series tries to capture the “within
silence” and sublime presence of a certain number of places that I had the chance to visit for the past 10 years (since
2007). The purpose is not to show the place like it is, as a postcard, but to express the feeling I got at that moment, hoping 問:
to grab the viewers’ attention. “Somewhere” is a place, a place waiting for our hearts. I hope the viewers can use their 答:
imagination and see what they get from the photos.

問: 為何將攝影展名命為「某處」?
答: 是次攝影作品展合共展出了22張「某處」系列作品，名命為
「某處」是因為相片不刻意著重於特定地點，相片可能是拍
攝於某個地方，反映了我當時的感覺或片刻的恬靜。我不將
相片冠名為澳門、香港或是其他地方，因為這與地方無關，
而我是想反映捕捉當時風景、建築物等剎那間的情感。這系
列作品嘗試捕捉「內在謐寧」以及將過去十年的作品加以昇
華呈現人前，這本攝影集收錄了我自2007年的作品，總共結
合60張相片編輯成書。相片所表達的不在於拍攝地點，而是
想呈現我當時的情感，並希望能令觀眾駐足欣賞。「某處」
是一個地方，一個等待我們心領神會之處，觀眾可以用他們
的想像體會相片帶給他們的得著。
