創作理念  Artist Statement
 

「這系列風景畫的圖像來源大多取自於我出外踏青或旅行所拍攝的照片。

 

繪畫對我而言是個載體，面對過往拍攝的攝影圖像開始寫生，然而我所畫的多半不是再現這些風景，而是過程中不斷面對當下的自身狀態、生活環境以及這些人事已非的場景所帶給我的想像。藉由繪畫性連結過往至當下的時間性並雜揉在畫布上，成為即將在某個時刻顯現的圖像。有些是對於未知的連結，透過繪畫啟動這挖掘的過程。繪製這些風景畫就像是讓四散的生命經驗在此相遇，繪畫對於畫者而言是不斷處理自身與空間、時間關係的課題。

 

每座森林作為隱喻有著自身運作的生態體系，有時候我們只是暫時路過。在這每一片刻短暫相遇的過程中景色依舊、人事已非甚至全然更替、消失，而我們始終仍不斷穿梭於不同體系間，在互動交流中找尋自身的位置。風景中刻意沒有人被安排在畫面裡，然後每一個風景都是與不同的人在不同的時間點彼此交織構成所留下的痕跡。」 ── 許聖泓

“The source of image of this landscape painting series mostly comes from my photos in my trips or travels.

 

To me, painting is a media. I paint in front of the photos that I took in the past. I do not draw to reveal these scenes, but the imagination that came from my reflection on my state during painting, my living environment and the scene that had already changed. Through painting, I connect the past to the current time and mix them on a canvas. It then becomes an image that is about to be shown in an upcoming moment. Some connections connect to unknown, and painting is the initiation of this digging process. Painting these landscape paintings is like gathering the scattered life experience here. Painting is a task to painters that they handle their relationships among themselves, space and time continuously.

 

As a metaphor, every forest has its ecosystem that functions in its own way. Sometimes we just briefly passed. For every brief moment that we meet, landscape remains the same, yet personnel and situation are no longer and vanished. And we continuously travel among different systems, to find our own places through interaction and communication. There is not a single person in a landscape scene on purpose, and every scene is a mark that people leave when they meet different people in different time.” ── Shiu Sheng-Hung
