《無為》Awakening in the Darkness

關於展覽 ／ About Exhibition :

<浮世>>

系列「春、夏、秋、冬」共4幅作品，代表了戀愛中的「甜、酸、苦、辣」。

這一系列會用原子筆混合兩種不同地域，不同時期的藝術風格:起源於17世纪的日本浮世繪 (Ukiyo-e) 跟西方二十世紀興起的藝術思潮歐普藝術 (Op Art)，帶出一種全球化世代下，文化上的自覺及差異。

用原子筆演繹文化上的相遇和融合，就像人與人之間的化學作用，是愛還是不愛?

<<Awakening in the darkness>>

由內到外、自我與高我之中，看見自己潛意識裡的每一個世界。

人要多久才明白，身處的黑暗地方才看得見光，還是一切的存在太理所當然所以知道卻不理會?

日出接著日落，每天如是，營營役役，怨天尤人，直到白頭，接著輪迴，重蹈覆辙。

別再為外在人、事、物營營役役，學習打開身心，然後勇敢清理、學會做人、覺悟知道人生是能夠選擇的。

<<浮世>>

There are total of four artworks in this series, named with four seasons “Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter”. It represents the sweets and bitters of love.

Reni used a ballpoint pen to create a fusion of two artistic styles from different regions and periods: Japanese Ukiyo-e (Ukiyo-e), which originated in the 17th century and Op Art, an artistic trend that emerged in the 20th century, to deliver the message of cultural distinction under the era of globalization.

A ball pen is used to interpret cultural encounters and integrations, it is similar to the chemistry between people.

<<Awakening in the darkness>>

From the inside out, you can see every world in your subconscious.

How long does it take to understand that people can see the light in a dark place, or do they know it but choose to ignore it?

From sunrise to sunset, everyone is working hard, complaining about others as a daily routine. They also keep repeating the same mistakes in their life.

Stop worrying about others, try to open your mind, endure the pain. And learn to behave oneself, you will realize that life could be chosen.
