Cloud-21160 Painting

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.
