韩国性玩偶摄影师 June Korea 与成人玩偶一起探索生活
六月韩国的作品《静物：伊娃》（《静物：伊娃》）是一部纪实摄影作品，讲述了一个男人与栩栩如生的性玩偶一起生活的故事。这些照片相当吸引人。相关媒体采访了他，想深入挖掘艺术家探索此类话题的动机，但也面临着大多数人的疑问：“这个人是真的吗？”
以下是各种采访的摘要：
六月韩国的艺术背景是什么？
六月 韩国在韩国获得工业工程学士学位。2009年移居美国后，在加州艺术中心设计学院获得摄影与电影学士学位，并在纽约视觉艺术学院拓展相关研究领域，获得摄影、视频硕士学位及相关媒体。
你为何如此痴迷于拍摄实体娃娃？
这个项目是在六月的最后一段恋情结束几周后开始的，当时他正在写一篇令人心碎的艺术论文。创作的作品来自于情绪挣扎的时候，而不是情绪稳定的时候。
琼从 2001 年开始拍摄娃娃，就像他小时候一样，观察他们的秘密生活。几年来，他一直在使用它们进入摄影作品。之后，他开始问自己，“我为什么要给娃娃拍照？”
对他来说，那是孤独。他的社交生活活跃，但当他从床上醒来时，却发现自己一个人在家；当他下班或聚会回到家时，总是面对空虚，在人群中感到孤独，那些人，那些时刻，那些他希望永远存在的记忆要么消失要么消失，他知道其他人也会这样做。这就是为什么我对拍摄娃娃感兴趣，因为看起来像人类但没有生命的物体永远不会消失。
你是买实体娃娃拍的，还是要自己买？
After deciding to create this work, June studied many small sex dolls and wanted to find the one that looked the most human. Later, he received a huge box, and when he was about to open the box, his hands trembled slightly.
The name “Eva” is a combination of the words “Forever” and “Eve”-according to the creation myth of the Abrahamic religion, Eve was the first woman. Eva and June form an incredible relationship. They sleep together, wake up together, shop together, eat together, drive together, and even travel together. Just like ordinary people, they will laugh and cry together, and feel happy and lonely.
What is their relationship? What does Eva mean to June?
June’s purpose is not to show real-life relationships: he is a creator, and this is a fantasy they built together. In the real world of life, Eva has no real life. He is waiting for Google to implant AlphaGo into the doll's body. So an imaginary world was created through photography. In a sense, June gave birth to Eva.
Eva and June are metaphors: metaphors of their emotions and their relationship with humans, cats, dogs, AI, and ordinary people living in this lonely world.
So what is the ultimate goal of June?
June believes that it will be to implant artificial intelligence into human but non-human bodies, then big booty sex doll may be the choice. The development of technology is beyond our expectations, it may happen in 10 years, or it will take us 5 years to see some progress. He firmly believes that art must prepare for new generations and new types of relationships, and deal with new themes related to our emotions, morals, and lives.
What inspired his creation, did he try to imitate other photographers?
For June, the main influence is not a tangible reference or influence, but the emotions experienced in daily life, interpersonal relationships or the environment. He is transforming these intangible influences into his own visual elements, metaphors and narratives. His work is a sponge that absorbs self-feeling, and a mirror that reflects oneself.
What role do dolls play in modern society? What are their disadvantages?
Since he started creating, he has been studying the TPE sex doll industry and the people who live with dolls. The worldwide market and population are constantly growing. What's interesting is that people buy dolls not only for sex, but also for their true partnership. This gives dolls a new identity and makes people feel comfortable and comforting.
这种现象可能会令人尴尬，就像人们对伊娃的第一印象一样。有些人可能认为他们是怪胎、变态或精神障碍。然而，不，他们只是我们周围孤独的人——有时包括我们自己。有时他们希望有人和他们在一起，但他们可能太悲伤或反社会而无法与真实的人保持关系。娃娃对他们来说可能就像宠物对其他人一样。
但琼会问自己：“如果我创造一个人造的永恒呢？如果他给一个娃娃一个新的生命，一个新的身份怎么办？如果我让那个人永远留在我建造的幻想世界里怎么办？”
