Mental Landscape｜Taichung City Seaport Art Center

"Mental Landscape" is a language that lies between poetry and painting. It is not necessarily a scene in reality, but rather emotions, memories, subconsciousness, and a sense of time transformed into a viewable space. It is a "reinterpretation" of the complex observation of people, events, and things, which is internalized and then evolved. The symbols and metaphors in this process are also based on the human perspective, but they are not expressed by recording specific human figures and activities. "Mental Landscape" actually implies the essence of symbolism or metaphor. It is not an interpretation of allegory or mysticism, but another kind of ambiguous, infinite, and atmospheric image ritual. This makes the content of the landscape neither "nature" nor a synonym for "beauty," but a kind of spiritual consciousness that encompasses the landscape itself. Through painting, it attempts to transform the invisible psychological state into a viewable spatial structure. By sifting through color blocks and layered brushstrokes to create the texture and spatial displacement of the picture, it constructs a field of inner consciousness flow and attempts to expand the spatial dimension to reflect the way consciousness sees. In addition to being a fusion of the external world, psychological reflection, and inner sensibility, art also regards the expansion and expression of the creator's own inner subjective feelings as its main purpose.
