當我們說「我是」、「我覺得」，這個「我」代表了什麼？
「我」又是如何體驗生活中的喜悅與悲傷？
 






藝術家自述：
這些年，我的藝術創作逐漸從感性、無形的表達，轉變為漫步在心靈與精神間的探索。而我進行創作的過程，彷彿也從情感釋放，變為一種反射和崇敬。在某種意義上，我的創作方法較過往更為抽象，成為一個能讓我們拋出問題的途徑：當我們說「我是」、「我覺得」，這個「我」代表了什麼？「我」又是如何體驗生活中的喜悅與悲傷、體驗這些人類根本的感受？這個由內主宰了我所創造的空間的「我」，究竟是從何而來？ 這系列作品便是這些問題的化身。此次的創作，不但受到佛教哲學的教學工作，以及拉赫曼尼諾夫跟貝多芬音樂的啟發，也是源於我每日在禪修中苦戰的體會。

 

ARTIST STATEMENT
Over the years, my art practice has gradually transitioned from an expression of the emotive and intangible, to a meandering exploration of the numinous and the spiritual. My time in the studio has shifted from being a cathartic release, to one of reflection and reverence. And my approach has become, in a sense, more abstract than ever. It has become a path that asks the question: what does it mean to "be", to say "I am", "I feel", and to experience the daily joys and sorrows that are fundamental to our kind? Where has this "I" come from, that dominates and dictates the space within which I create? These works are the embodiment of these very questions, inspired by the teachings of Buddhist philosophies, the music of Rachmaninov and Beethoven, and informed by the daily struggles of my meditation practice.
