limbophobia

《LIMBOPHOBIA》 is director Wen-Yee Hsieh's second VR personal project, once again
immersing the audience in his intense dark aesthetics. he opens another gate, and the
city he's taken up residence in darkens, surrounded by black waters and haunted by fear.
A unique one-man project that quietly and uncomfortably shows the darkness of how

far humanity can go in its quest for invincibility.
 

Limbophobia opens with a dramatic quote from the book Will Grayson, Will Grayson: “I
am constantly torn between killing myself and killing everyone around me.” This
spiritual crisis in a dark border region forms the introduction to Wen-Yee Hsieh's misty
nocturnal world in which visitors finds themselves in twilight zones of existential
terror. The powerful black and white graphics making up this hallucinatory world blur
the boundaries between the real and the digital, the solid and the ephemeral, the
eternal and the temporary. What starts as a glance through a misty window on a
storm-swept beach turns into a wild ride into increasingly unstable realities rocked by
explosions and collapsing buildings. All this is accompanied by music that sounds like

the slow breath of the collective unconscious.

《暗面》是導演謝文毅的第二部VR個人作品，再一次的將觀眾帶進他強烈的黑色美學中。

他推開了另一扇門，他身處的城市被黑暗吞沒，陷於黑水之中，受無盡的恐懼糾纏。

這項獨特的單人創作計畫，以靜謐卻令人不安的方式，揭示了人類在對抗巨大的過程中究竟能走向多麼深沉的黑暗。
 

作品以小說《Will Grayson, Will Grayson》中

一句極具戲劇張力的引言揭開序幕：「我不斷在殺死自己與殺光身邊所有人之間痛苦撕扯。」

這場發生在幽暗邊境的精神危機，成為了進入謝文毅迷霧夜世界的引子；

在這裡，觀眾將深陷於存在主義式的恐懼交界。

強烈黑白視覺構築出這個致幻的世界，模糊了真實與數位、實體與虛幻、永恆與短暫的界線。

一切始於狂風暴雨的某夜中，透過起霧窗戶的一瞥；

隨後急轉直下，化作一場在連環爆炸與建築崩塌中穿梭的失控之旅。

而迴盪在整個空間的配樂，聽起來猶如集體潛意識的緩慢吐息。​
