About The Artwork

HUIROAERAK(喜怒哀樂) “Joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure” As usual, happy things accompany difficulties, and vice versa. While I feel like I was at the edge of the cliff, I become motivated for hope. When I feel very comfortable, I am seized by anxiety. As I turned 60, Gustav Mahler’s symphony, which always bored me, charms my ears. Mahler’s music hovers around in my head as it is overlapped with my emotions. Even an incident that felt like the sky would fall in, and a story that was extremely sad gave me the power of positivity and courage to overcome together. Nowadays, I calmly accept anything, unless it is a matter of life or death. This HUIROAERAK(喜怒哀樂) series can be easily understood in the extension of the concept of the Cloud series, which was the last series. While the Cloud series is about the path of life that certain entities repeat expansion through continuous fractal formations and head to the path of extinction towards the original point as they hit the half of life(the end of the canvas), the HUIROAERAK series is a concept that emotions of each moment can be comprehended by colors on the folders even though we don’t read all the journals about incidents at each folder recorded in the cloud. The structure is that Canvas 2 with color surfaces arranged is viewed through pierced Canvas 1. I came to discover Small Earth series and Reveal series in this HUIROAERAK series.

The theme that penetrates many series of my works is the ‘expression of my will to be free through immersion’. The immersion enables me to dominate the canvas with infinite imagination. When I was exhausted by engineering figures filling my whole head in my early days, something offered its hand to me in the last place, which was my old dream to become a painter. The dream has come true now. The meticulous engineering disposition in the past has been changed into persistent concentration on arts, and the results of the immersion have been fully represented as works. The canvas looks like filled with machine parts interlocked with each other. If you take a close look, however, you can see that the marginal space is regarded as more important than entities. In other words, it means that the freedom is always in the order, and it also includes rules inside. The representation of order and rules, and space and freedom is reflecting my thoughts about life as a painter. I want to be remembered as an artist who is always proactive for changes without settling down in the same spot. If my works in the early stage are compared with the current works, it might be difficult to guess that they have been drawn by the same artist. However, the middle process shows that they have been changed just like a word association game. The narrative including humans’ entangled relations and our history in the base part of those works, becomes the matrix of works, so it is in the same context with humans’ nature that does not change despite the ever-changing external transformation.
