我約從2014、2015年間開始符號相關的創作我在繪畫中尋找歸屬在不具體的圖像中感受到自在I have been working on asemic related paintings since around 2014 and 2015. I am looking for a place to belong in my paintings and feel at ease in the vague、obscure images.
我時常問自己想做的很簡單的很具體的我希望自己輕裝而行I often ask myself what I want to do? what is simple? what is pure? I want to take it smoothly.
我想要線條蓋過其他線條.
我想要蛇行.
我想要營造一個空間.
I want lines to override the other lines.
I want to zigzag.
I want to shape a space.
我想要假裝畫一道影子
我想要這邊有一條河.
我想要快速 柔軟.
I want to draw a shadow.
I want to draw a river.
I want to be fast and soft.
我想要細的.
我喜歡藍色.
I like thin line.
I like blue.
麥克筆和便條紙是我最主要的創作工具我會把畫過的便條紙貼在背後當整疊畫完之後它像被風吹過遍地都是符號Marker pens and Post-it notes are my main tools.I would stick the painted note on it back.When the whole paper was finished.It’s like the wind has blown and there are symbols all over the place.
我可以一天內連續畫很長的時間但通常我不會這麼做我喜歡時間拉長了我的風格我喜歡在相似之中觀賞自己的差異就像雲跟海浪很像但每天都不一樣I can paint for a long time in a day, but I don’t usually do that.I like the way time stretches my styles.I like to see my differences in the similarities.It’s like clouds and waves, they’re similar but they’re different every day.
我仍然不清楚我的動機或是我在想什麼每一幅畫對我而言都像一篇故事我能感受到一些事情甚至似乎回想起當時的心情但更多的是快樂I’m still not sure what motivates me or what I’m thinking.Each painting is like a story to me, I even seem to be able to remember how I was feeling.But more than that, it’s pleasured.
嘗試不同的媒體是我很重要的靈感來源就像好好去面對感受生活中各種不同的事它們成為我重要的營養或是混亂進入我的創作之中Trying different media is very important for me.It’s like facing and feeling all the different things in life.They’re my important inspiration or confusion into my work.
在過去數年創作符號會被作為祝福送給身邊的朋友亦或紀念見面的時刻我也很幸運能持續透過創作認識自己及許多新的朋友因而做出更多樣的作品如果你剛好遇見我的創作也感興趣歡迎隨時跟我聊聊Over the past few years,I’ve painted that have been sent as blessings to friends around me, or as a reminder of the times I’ve met friends.I’ve also been very lucky to know more about myself and to make new friends through my work.If you happen to come across my work and are interested in it, please feel free to talk to me.All your encouragement means a lot for me.
