本文將研究臺灣行動藝術家湯皇珍的創作形式，探討其1999-2014年的10件《我去旅行》計畫作品，以及集結《我去旅行》10件作品而成的另一項大型裝置暨行動表演〈尤里西斯機器—回視湯皇珍「我去旅行」十五年〉，闡述其作品的「重複」與「當下」的意義，進而分析《旅行》系列之「溝通的不可能」和「寓言」等多重涵義，並以「身體與空間」、「聲音與語言」和「時間與記憶」三項說明〈尤里西斯機器〉行動表演的劇場元素。行動藝術做為藝術的類型之一，其主要目的在於使藝術與生活產生有效的連結，從而由意識的改造來進行生活層面的改變。行動藝術往往以直接進入生活場域發生和親身介入生活的事件形式，以高度異質化的事件、行動與舉止，將之反轉為創作的問題意識，並做為藝術家承載思辨的必要介質，以達到意識狀態的思辨改造，進而撼動因循的生活形態。湯皇珍主要以行動藝術做為創作方式，藉之叩問和思考人類存在處境的永恆命題，並以「溝通」和「旅行」為主題，來批判當代高科技社會下人類生活的疏離現象，演繹出人生做為一場旅行的各種樣態與意義。

This paper explores the creation form of Taiwanese action artist Tang Huang-Chen’s works, cov-ering 10 works in Go Travelling from 1999 to 2014 and the her performance art Ulysses Machine - Tang Huang-Chen’s “I Go Travelling”--15 years later created based on her works. First, it il-lustrates the connotation of “repetition” and “present” in her works, analyzes the multiple mean-ings of “impossibility in communication” and “allegory” in “I Go Travelling” series, and then explains the elements in the theatre of the performance Ulysses Machine from the three aspects of “body and space”, “sound and language”, and “time and memory”. As one of artistic types, actions art aims to bound art and life effectively and thus change the life through the remolding of consciousness. To realize ideological remolding actions art and thus influence our life style, action art may take the forms of occurring in real life directly and stepping in our life personally, which inverts the highly idiosyncratic events, actions and manners into the awareness for crea-tion to serve as the necessary media of artists’ thoughts. With action art as creation approach, Tang Huang-Chen questions and reflects the eternal topic of human beings’ environment of ex-istence, who also takes “communication” and “travelling” as her themes to criticize people’s al-ienation in life in the hi-tech society, to deduce the various types and meanings of life as a journey.
