My Artworks are related the little things from daily life and the scattered memories
It is just like any six year old little girl, my memories are represented after editing. They are full of romance, excitement, they are pride and arrogance, they are beautiful and sumptuous, they are touching and dynamic, but, they are not the whole truth, but also are not created unrestrainedly. They just transform in the mind day by day, forming the difference. However, who will really care about the real memories of just a lady? Growing up in the maternal family, father and his role was always absent. At roughly 19 years of age, He was absent forever. Ever since , all new born in this family are all girls. Girls, who can be always joined together closely. I am always trying hard to recall the pureness and vitality we lost in this age from the memories. I have liked the Kitchen, the bowls and tea accessories with asian style, tea and dim sum. Sometimes I have studied some theories of Feng Shui, Chinese medication and meals related with the solar terms that adjust the body with the nature, and also Bonsai. Not for any professional reason, just little hobbies, but they are always connected with my memories and experiences, appearing in my life again and again. 我的作品與每天發生的微少瑣事和零碎記憶有關。
就如一個六歲的小女孩一樣,我的記憶是經過我改造再重現的。它們是浪漫的、刺激的、令人驕傲而又漂亮華麗的、更是相當戲劇性,只是它們並不是完全真實的,卻也不是謊言,也不是我故意加鹽加醋,只是它們就在腦子裡變化了,產生了延異。可是,誰又會執著一個女生的真實記憶呢? 成長於母系家庭裡,自少父親經常缺席於日常裡。在我大概十九歲的那天,他永久缺席了。從此在家庭所誕生的孩子,也全是女生。女生嘛,就是可以緊緊地貼在一起。 我努力地在回憶中發掘生命力和失落了的純真。我喜歡廚房、帶有東方味道的陶制盤子和茶具、喝茶和點心、偶然研究一點風水和中藥、還有盤栽,也會因為節氣而做一點和身體配合的食物。談不上大道理,只是總會留在作品裡留下一點痕跡。 |
