「真音,是你還沒意識到,聲音就出現了,好像不是你自己造出來得聲音」 。

某日跟前輩的聊天片段,問說創作符號的選擇為何?我無法精確回答,於是那段話很符合現階段的創作。

「印象:心象」對外界得觀察與內視的總合便是創作得呈現。

心中的影像如同充滿雲霧般的令人沉迷昏恍,是清晨的森林那種冷冽迷霧,虛幻的空間,色彩幽暗游移不定,具象與抽象之間的這種曖昧性,如同未緊閉的木門,風吹而晃動,半開不開間,使我忍不住偷窺,帶點緊張刺激的窺視。

畫家可以將情緒及感覺變成可見的畫面,帶著前往未知彼岸的勇氣;感激自己有感受他方的能力,這是在我開始學會感恩以及付出以後才有的體悟,於是藝術家成為一種發聲的媒介,傳達出愛。

Artist Statement

“The true voice is a sound that appears before you realize, a sound that is so foreign that it seems to have come from elsewhere.”

 

In a conversation with another artist the other day who asked how I craft my creative language, I didn’t have an answer for that. To me, the statement above turns out to be in tune with my current art practice.

 

My art is conceived as my perception of the surroundings transforms through my feelings and turns into a visual image. The images in my mind appear vaguely, like enveloped in the morning mist in a forest. There’s an illusoryspace with shifting gloomy colors that creates an ambiguity between the figurative and the abstract. As if there’s a half closed door that invites me to peek through with voyeuristic excitement. It is only after I have learned to be grateful and to give that I have come to realize that painters have the ability to express their emotions and feelings on the canvas with a sense of courage to explore the unknown.

Being an artist turns out to be a channel for me to voice my thoughts and convey love.
