[thoughts]: What kind of Soul are U?


You Are a Dreaming Soul



Your vivid emotions and imagination takes you away from this world

So much so that you tend to live in your head most of the time

You have great dreams and ambitions that could be the envy of all...

But for you, following through with your dreams is a bit difficult



You are charming, endearing, and people tend to love you.

Forgiving and tolerant, you see the world through rose colored glasses.

Underneath it all, you have a ton of passion that you hide from others.

Always hopeful, you tend to expect positive outcomes in your life.



Souls you are most compatible with: Newborn Soul, Prophet Soul, and Traveler

Soul



Am I really that kind of person? May be ......


To S: you are always encouraging and taking the initiative. I am inspired by you and I think I have to "learn" not to hide my passion from others......

[art] Artist Statement

偶然地從網上看到這段文字

你尾指末節的疤痕
於若干年後偶而回到記憶
鬧市的下坡路變得曲折漫長
天空的粉紫色沿著架空電線流走
停在一排青色街燈的盡頭
那縫合傷口後無法磨滅的贅肉
如地盤的工作棚刺眼和粗糙
我曾經好愛撫摸

聯想起自己膝上的疤痕,想起了用手指頭撫摸那凹凸不平的感覺。其實,我很喜愛那略帶粗糙的質感,燈心絨的坑紋、巴士椅背的鐵縲絲 ...... 就這樣,我開始發展了這系列用手的觸感為起點的作品。

主題對於我的創作相當重要,尤其是在引發聯想和起始構圖的時候。不過,每當開始著筆,我全副精神就會被畫面所吸引著,只是想著如何追求畫面給予自己一種美、一種意境的感覺。有時信手拈來一筆,有時對著畫面思考良久,然後又修改。所以,我覺得作品除了展示完成的結果,也記錄了整個過程。這個尋覓的過程,不一定分辨得是快樂或是痛苦,卻是每一幅畫的靈魂。

或許,就正如 Philip Guston 所說 “I "panic" and hate it and desire it to stop fully as much as I love and need it and want to continue endlessly.”

[art]: Final? or it is just another begining......

兩年以來的diploma課程,一個又一個的開始,一個又一個的結束。每次完結的時候,我發現我才找到要開始的地方。到了這最後的 Painting Project B,感覺也是一樣。不過,每一次的開始,不是完全的重新來過,而是好像塗多了一重底色在canvas上再畫,底的雖然是舊,但也不是完全的看不見......
