This exhibition borrows in the name of Samuel Beckett's drama "Waiting for Godot", showing life in repeated wait﹐is the insistence seek to find hope, or the needless dissipate﹒ My paintings represent the diversion of truncation to a temporary stay of space and time﹐and shape a plastic status by memory﹒It seems to be absent, erratic, and conveys a modern social care of illusionary impermanence.
Descartes's famous line "I think therefore I am ", is bare to reveal vulnerability and helplessness of human′s self facing after abandoning God. To him, the self and the outside world is so alienated, this gap is never been filled in , although the human beings vehemently explore the inner meaning of subtlety and the worth of being in the same time, yet the more rack their brains, the more fear and uncertainty. Such as the play says, Godot never appears, but it completely changed the fate and the life of them. The aspects of my works of painting, seem to be calm but vaguely uneasy with the illusion-like atmosphere, providing a space for the kingdom of nothingness, neither the historical context but also lack of social markers, but an uncertainty of field. For the ambiguous sense of space, enhances Illusory in the face of the meditation of the time. The stones or the islands from time to time appeared deliberately become a state of the objects. Frozen by gaze into the time, when I look back, time is already flying away, and endless stretched of waiting time. Is not life a series of waiting for the summary?
My works of painting differ from traditional paintings in the so-called "representation" (the simulation representation) . I take nature as a facsimile . In the way of reproduction from nature is not a trick but through replacement, and performs the differences from nature itself. I deal the way with subtraction to reform the facsimile and conversion to model the new forms, and question the values for the existence of physical elements and then evoke the new interface from visual semantics and plastic construction. On the other hand, Simplification of form and the non-narrative text let viewers do not need to borrow a story to interpret them. but to face a world where you can sink mind clear and infinite contemplation of〝spiritual landscape〞.作者: fish 時間: 2011-1-17 17:47
