「花非花-繪畫的趣味與實驗」,是一場豐盛的藝術旅程。在旅程中,逐一探索心靈的美感,與現實世界互相激盪融合。彷彿是在浩瀚的藝術領域中,發現了世外桃源,看到許多以往不曾接觸的。如同哥林多前書2:9所記:「神為愛他的人所預備的,是眼睛未曾看見,耳朵未曾聽見,人心也未曾想到的。」。
運用油彩、天然大漆為媒材,進行藝術創作。以繪畫的趣味與實驗為出發,由寫景、寫生的美感追求,逐漸轉換為內在心靈層次、更豐富的藝術創作。經由梵谷、塞尚的畫面結構與美感,重新思考「似與不似之間」的繪畫性;也藉由莫內、波納爾的心靈色彩,了解到色彩的心理及色彩的靈性。更因為康丁斯基、波洛克及本研究的指導教授作品,啟發了想像力與創造力。
在實驗過程中,獲得最佳的啟示:色彩有感情、知覺、張力,線條也有情緒、生命、力量。將書法、音樂、舞蹈的美感經驗,運用畫筆、刮刀表現出線條的旋律、節奏,這些都是超越實驗前所預期的。
當整體作品完成時,即深刻感受:藝術是我一輩子追求的目標!
“A Flower Is Not a Flower - the Delight and Experiment of Paintings” is a wonderful art journey. In this trip, the mind aesthetic is merged together with reality. It seems that the heaven is discovered; and I see many of the things that I have never seen before. Corinthians 2: 9 ” No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.”
I use oil paints and natural lacquer in art creation. With delight and experiment, the art creation is gradually transformed from the pursuit of aesthetics in landscape and outdoor paintings into much abundance in inner mind. Through the composition and aesthetics of Van Gogh and Cezanne, I re-consider the painting “between similarity and dissimilarity”. Following the mind color of Monet and Bonnard, I realize the psychology of color and the spirituality of color. The works of Kandinsky, Pollock and the advisor of this thesis also inspire me the imagination and creation.
During the experiment, I receive the best message: Color has feelings, perception and extension; the line also has emotion, life and power. The aesthetic experience of dancing, music and Chinese calligraphy is revealed under the lines with melody and rhythm by painting brush and scraper which are far beyond the expectation before experiment.
When whole works are completed, I realize the art becomes the goal of my life.
