對影像的出現和消失的思考。
作者自我的影像隨著創作材料的準備(磨墨),從漸漸浮現到攪亂至凝結,當毛筆吸收墨汁,自我的影像被毛筆所吞噬,作者的靈魂轉換成創作材料,成為一種符碼,作為創作行為和作者之間的一種辯證。
This piece of work is to contemplate on the appearance and disappearance of the images. The image of the artist appears in the ink as the art material is being prepared. The image along with the ink, gets mixed and eventually disappears as the ink mixture solidifies. As the brush absorbs the ink, the image of the artist is soaked up by the brush.
The artist’s soul becomes material for creation and transforms into a code, which serves as a piece of dialectic between the creative process and the creator.
