作品阐述
2012生成与弥散
陈琦 /水印木刻 / 380cmX4200cm
生成与弥散是一件大型装置,横幅巨制在单薄的展墙上拉开了动与静结合的视觉体验。大型水波纹是艺术家使用木刻水印制作而成,木刻水印是中国古代版画制作的伟大创造,用古老的技法创造当代艺术,这种“生成”的意味在过程中被凝聚起来。“生成与弥散”是建构与解构、是入世与出世、是存在与消亡、是有与无。在重重叠叠的景致中似动、也似乎静。这种体验是微妙的,是循环的,也是安静的、祥和的。“仁者乐山,智者乐水”,黑与白的纹路在这里不仅仅是视觉感受,更是对中国古老智慧的再一次追寻。
The Born and Expansion of 2012
Chen Qi / Woodblock Print / 380cmX4200cm
“The Born and Expansion 2012” is a large-scale installation, with huge landscape prints displayed on thin walls, presenting a combined dynamic and static visual experience. The water-ripple patterns are made by the artist using the woodblock watermark technique, which is a great invention of ancient Chinese printmakers. The concept of“generation” is embodied in the process of using an ancient technique to create a contemporary artwork.“The Born and Expansion 2012” epitomizes the unity of construction and deconstruction, worldliness and heavenliness, existence and non-existence, being and not-being. The layers of overlapping landscapes seem to be dynamic and static at the same time. The visual experience is subtle, cyclical, tranquil and peaceful. As the ancient Chinese saying goes,“the wise man delights in water, while the Good man delights in mountains.” The black and white patterns in this artwork not only appeal to the visual sense, but also explore further into ancient Chinese wisdom.
