黃楷馨 HUANG Kai-Hsing Tuning…:if I really needed to define my work, I would sum it up with the following three phrases: Acentered harmony, intangible sweet and creative unity. I see my artwork as a distillation of my senses and thoughts. The intangible and tangible aspects of my life and the way in which I live are central to my process. Whether it be fragments of reality or fantasy, my muse can come from the senses or sensitivity, a teaching, relationships in between, speculation, a series of movements, every touch embedded in my mind, thoughts, day-to-day inspiration, a sum of words like verse, issue or a touch of anticipation.......etc, all perceptions and understandings remain in my head, waiting for a chance to be released. Following careful operation in my mind, these ideas will distill into clear forms or an authoring of kinetic energy, both in a natural manner. In turn, this forces me to realize them via all kinds of media, allowing the creative conversion to unfold before me. Thereupon, I can see a truly harmonious state in my own consciousness.(by Kai) Kai-Hsing Huang has a reserved and calm appearance but is actually a bold and creative artist with a penetrating vision and experimental spirit.
