选取荒原意象入画,立足于我的生命体验。
我试图在这片树林中描绘出时间感,历史的重叠感,生命意义的不确定性。画面中厚重的土地,幽暗的树林,远处天空的丝丝明亮统统构成我的内心世界。
画面形成过程也更多的是与内心反复交流,较量。作画前不做预先设计,没有成型图示作为目标。颜料一笔笔一层层堆叠上去,感受内心的微微颤动。用穿插于画面中的白色线条来打破某种完整性,制造一些不确定因素,同时整幅画也表现出一些现实隐喻。
我希望和我们今天生活的城市拉开一定距离,去描绘城市周边被人遗忘或是待开发的一片荆棘漫布,树枝疯长的“原始”之地。在我看来它更具生命力,符合我对生命的认知,仅此而已。

The image of wastelandin the painting is based on my own life experience.I tried to portray the sense of time, the overlap of history, and the uncertainty of the meaning of life in this forest. The thick land,the dark woods, and the brightness of the sky in the distance constitute my inner world.
The formation of the painting is the process of repeated communication and contest with my heart. There is no pre-design before painting and no visualpattern as the final target. Ican feel the slight vibration of the heart when the pigments are stacked layer by layer. The white lines interspersed in the woods break some integrity, create some uncertainties, and indicate some realistic metaphors.
I wantto stay away from the city we live in and depict a "raw" land full of thorns and branches that have been forgotten or to be developed. The wasteland has vigorousvitality and reflects my understanding of the essence of life.
