肆:艺术灵感主要源于什么 来源于回忆、文学、童话、对人和物的感念和日常生活。

肆:为什么选择艺术 最 理 而 表 的 地 并


S: Can you describe yourself? I am a very &quot;nostalgic person&quot;. I always find there exists an area in my mind that containing my childhood memory. The pictures, sound and scent there have a great impact on me during my growing. I am not able to go back but it always is there in somewhere. I believe that some of my imagination, identity and confidence come from it. I see myself as a transparent but obscure person, quiet but solid, just like my works.

S: What is your current states of working and living? I am in progress. I have just jumped out of &quot;Being A Student&quot; for 9 months, and had occurred some anxiety and confusion since graduation, but now I feel myself calm down a bit. Because I am moving on to my two big destination which are my job and my studio settlement. I found that when I was a student, I often feel that I was pushing by the &quot;deadline&quot;, and I am aware that it is more important when I actually become a freeman. So some short-period deadlines really help to stabilize my emotion. Speaking of living, I am learning to slow down. I spent more time on my family, friends, doing yoga, cooking and to keep heathy. I think working and living should somehow be separated. I want to be more calm and independent. S: Why did you choose Art? In the very beginning, I chose art because I like drawing. And now I feel Art is a form that keep my heart free. As a matter of fact, I think artists are all narcissistic, because they are too aware of their feelings, and try so hard to expanding them. How fascinating can one&#39;s feeling be? There&#39;s something can not be speakable, by making it, the process and result become &quot;Art&quot;. This is very brave, because there would have thousands of reasons to make you lost way, somehow like to recall a dream. This is a form that to memorize, to grow up, to express and then discover and then express again, and I am enjoying it.

S: What mainly inspires your art? I think my inspiration are from memories, literature, fairy tale, relationship and everyday life.


S: How do you see the &quot;uncertainty&quot; during the process of creating? For example, the self deny? I try to treat it calmly and take it easy. (But not easy to do). It is very normal and often happened, the same as the emotional ups and downs in life. But just keep going, it will be fine. We should believe in ourselves.

S: Can you talk about &quot;material evaluation&quot;? I mainly use glass as my material to create works. I do not keen on exploring the &quot;glassy&quot; or beauty of glass. Because I have already taken the overall structure, quality, form and colour into consideration when I started to make it. It has its sense of beauty in the first place. I think &quot;material evaluation&quot; mostly depends on how match does it work with thoughts. And sometimes idea comes from material, they are both important. I use glass recently because it fits the concepts of &quot;Formless memory&quot; &quot;Unbearable lightness&quot;and &quot;Mirror Images (through the looking glass)&quot;. I like the stillness and mystery of translucent glass and I am mostly interested in the mimetic power of glass.
