What seems to be a stable and quiet lifestyle is camouflaged by an extreme dangerous rip current. Since many people have this unknown fear to 'change', we'd rather not rocking the boat but to stay on our own destructive course. We often choose to ignore the calling to develop and grow, until it is too late...
As I see it, we all live inside a giant time machine, each of us mans our own little station. Technology advances our lifestyle, but does little to improve our interpersonal communication. We pass by each other inside this crowded machine everyday, and a cold alienation feeling frequently looms in the air. The more material stuff we own, the less we have in our souls. Can you still remember once upon a time our childhood experience of excitement and wonder strings into a shining pretty pearl necklace?
So how do we start this group interaction with another individual? another family? with our neighbors? How do you talk heart to heart with someone? How do you cope with certain stages in life? These questions are all echoed throughout this Lunatics illustration art. You will find topics on personal relationships, family, romance, couples, and feminism in modern society. The fear itself exists in the feeling of being alone, having a blank in relationships. Do you choose to ignore this fear? Or be brave standing forward to make a change?
1. 一輩子
為他人畫了很多面具
也為自己戴了很多面具
當面具拿下之後
是否還可以辨別自己的容顏?
<面具>
Over the years,
I painted numerous masks for art,
And wore many of them myself.
However, could I still recognize what’s underneath once I removed these masks?
Focusing too much on your own shadow,
Then you’re missing the twinkling evening stars.
Not letting the darkness to trap you in a corner,
But using it as a canvas to paint the silver moonlight!
Head up, chest out,
Taking a deep breath and marching on with pride! 2012
3.荒謬的人 擁擠的世界 偏偏在同一條陌路上
<擁擠> 2012
In this overcrowded place,
a mob of lunatics living as strangers traveling on the same road. 2012
4.看不見藍天 聽不到風聲 也聞不到田野香 腳底下踩的 空了 徒留漂游的國境
-----<漂游國境> 2013
I can see no sky,
smell no land,
hear no wind,
and keep stepping into holes...
Drifting from places to places. 2013 Water color, Acrylic, Color Pencil
5.沉默是時間的外衣 就是這麼緊緊地裹住它 隱身在角落 幾乎被淡忘 慢慢地拂塵 看到微微的光 -----------<微光>2K 水彩 粉彩色鉛 壓克力顏料
Rest comes with time.
Even being left on the shelf for ages,
and almost was forgotten.
But slowly one day,
it will see the light!

Growing from my core ability, now combining visual, spatial, music, animation, film, and products. I wish to expand my work horizon to a new level. In the past, I also had quite a few custom order arts requests.
