開放工作室介紹
澳洲藝術家凱伶 · 柏菲以大型混合媒材紙本素描為主要創作形式，探討城市化脈絡下的建築視覺語言，她的創作根植於寫實素描，並以此記錄都市環境中新舊建築之間的對比。藝術家特別希望能夠透過作品，反思城市中風土建築（vernacular architecture）的多樣性與巧思，和其在不斷變動的都市地景中的位置。
柏菲目前為2025台北｜寶藏巖國際藝術村第四季駐村藝術家之一，正於駐村期間蒐集關於臺北與其周邊地區建築特色的研究素材。開放工作室期間，觀眾將可看到她從日常城市生活中累積的研究紀錄，以及正在進行中的創作計畫——一系列以複合媒材呈現並突顯在地環境獨特元素的作品。藝術家亦將舉辦一場藝術家講座（2026.01.31星期六），介紹她的過往創作脈絡與工作室實踐，並分享近期研究方向的發展歷程。
Open Studio Introduction
Australian artist Cath Brophy creates large-scale, mixed-media drawings on paper, explores the visual language of architecture within the context of urbanisation. Grounded in observational drawing, Brophy's works document the contrast between new and existing structures in the urban environment. Specifically, the artist intends her work to serve as a meditation on both the variety and ingenuity of vernacular architecture in the city and its place in the changing topography of the urban landscape.
Brophy is currently one of the Season 4 resident artists at Treasure Hill Artist Village, where she is gathering research materials pertaining to the particular architecture of Taipei and surrounding areas. Visitors to the Open Studio will be able to see her research documentation gathered from daily life in the city, as well as work in progress on her current project: a series of mixed media works, highlighting unique elements and motifs from the local environment. The artist will also present an Artist Talk (2026.01.31 Sat.) to introduce her previous body of work and studio practice, as well as the on-going development of her most recent areas of inquiry.

藝術家介紹
凱伶・柏菲創作大型混合媒材紙本素描，其作品源自於對建築的寫實素描，她將周遭建築環境中觀察到的孤立細節重新詮釋與組合，形成抽象的構圖，並以此探索空間、結構與形式。她逐漸將這些建構視為一種隱喻，象徵都市發展過程中人們物理與社會環境的變遷。
柏菲原籍澳洲布里斯本，旅居經歷豐富，目前定居香港生活與工作。她的作品曾在歐洲及東南亞的個展與聯展中展出，柏菲的作品曾入圍澳洲 Dobell Drawing Prize，其部分作品亦可在紐約 The Drawing Center 的線上素描資料庫中欣賞。
Artist Introduction
Cath Brophy creates on large-scale, mixed-media drawings on paper, developed from observational sketches of architecture. Isolated details observed in the built environment around her are re-interpreted and reassembled to form abstract compositions that explore space, structure, and form. She increasingly sees these constructions as a metaphor for the transformation of our physical and social environments, through the ongoing process of urban development.
Originally from Brisbane, Australia, Cath Brophy has travelled extensively and currently lives and works in Hong Kong. Her work has been showcased in solo and group exhibitions in Europe and south-east Asia. Brophy's work has previously been shortlisted for Australia's nationwide Dobell Drawing Prize and a selection of her work can be viewed in The Drawing Center New York's online drawing archive.
