《聲譜》

本書以藝術家多年的藝術進駐歷程為經緯，融合六位專業評論者的深度論述，並隨書附上以台灣原土手工製作的陶環，使其兼具收藏性、研究性與參考價值。 《聲譜》是藝術家蔡坤霖於「聲譜系列」的脈絡所做的階段性整理，集結自2018年起於台灣、日本、挪威、澳洲等地駐村計畫中的幾個轉折點，並以自述與藝評文章交織出一幅聲音、物質與場域交感的創作地圖。 本書不僅記錄了作品如何透過水下錄音、泥土雕塑與環境聲響生成嶄新的表現概念，也展現藝術家對於聲音感知、共鳴哲學與身體經驗的細膩思索。

書中包含六位藝術評論者的專文分析，涵蓋東亞山水傳統、非視覺感知、物質性實踐與田野調查方法論，並輔以豐富圖版與創作筆記。無論你是聲音藝術愛好者、田野研究者或對環境議題有興趣的讀者，都將在《聲譜》中找到一條通往感知邊界與物質世界的共鳴之路。 本書以「水」與「聲」為設計的核心意象，三側書邊以漸層刷色呈現流動的層次感。封面所附的陶環由藝術家親手製作，以採自台灣各地的原土調配不同釉色燒成，交融出獨一無二的質地與光澤，書中並隨附一張（共四款）明信片，與陶環排列組合成唯一一本。

This book is structured around the artist’s years of residency-based practice, interwoven with in-depth essays by six professional critics. It is accompanied by a handcrafted ceramic ring made from Taiwanese native clay, giving the publication both collectible value and significance as a research and reference resource.

Resonance Relics is a mid-term consolidation of artist Kuen-Lin Tsai’s “Resonance Relics” series. It brings together key turning points from his residencies since 2018 in Taiwan, Japan, Norway, and Australia, weaving together personal narratives and critical essays into a creative cartography of sound, material, and site.

The book not only documents how the works generate new modes of expression through underwater recording, clay-based sculptural practice, and environmental sound, but also reveals the artist’s nuanced reflections on sonic perception, the philosophy of resonance, and embodied experience.

Featuring essays by six art critics, the publication addresses topics such as East Asian landscape traditions, non-visual perception, material practices, and fieldwork methodologies. Richly illustrated and supplemented with the artist’s notes, the book offers a resonant pathway into the boundaries of perception and the material world for readers interested in sound art, field research, or environmental issues.

Designed around the core imagery of “water” and “sound,” the book features gradient-painted edges along three sides, evoking a sense of fluidity. The ceramic ring attached to the cover is handcrafted by the artist using native soils collected from across Taiwan, each fired with distinct glazes to produce unique textures and luster. The book also includes one postcard (selected from four variations), which, together with the ceramic ring, makes each copy a singular and unrepeatable object.
