作品介紹
My performative painting practice explores the fluid interactions between the gestural brushstroke, the picture frame and the architectural space. I search to extend the fluidity, bone method and spirit resonance of East Asian calligraphy to brushstrokes created by the body moving in an architectural space. I use intuitive and spontaneous gestures to create a calligraphic narrative, inspired largely by dance improvisation, action painting and gestural abstraction.
Why is there a need for a painting to be presented within the boundaries of a frame? I am constantly questioning the conflicting and cohabiting relationship between the panoramic image, the frame, and an image that escapes its frame.
作者介紹
Born in Taiwan (1987, Changhua) and raised in Ecuador, Mexico and Peru, she spent a lot of her childhood drawing Buddhist, Mesoamerican and pre-Columbian mythologies. She learned Chinese calligraphy at an early age, fascinated by how variations in energy and personality can be transmitted through a single brushstroke. As a teenager, she discovered physical theater with the theater group CUER2 from Peru, introducing her to using improvisational organic body movements as a language to construct a narrative. These early experiences have helped shape a painting vocabulary inspired by eastern calligraphy, graffiti, cave paintings, gestural abstraction, action painting and dance improvisation.
