A Little Spring 一枝春
2021 | Watercolor 水彩 ｜56 x 76 cm
“Food”, “feminine consciousness”, “self-narrative”, “imagination”, “irony”, “watercolor” are all axes of the artist’s practices. Both the creative themes and mediums uphold a counter-mainstream persistence on the subconscious level as well as a thinking true to the inner self.
「食物」、「女性意識」、「自我敘事」、「想像」、「反諷」、「水彩」是我創作的主軸。創作主題和媒材在潛在的意識層面都有一種反主流的堅持，以及忠於自我內在的思維。
Banquet 饗宴
2017 | Watercolor 水彩｜28 x 28 cm*9 pieces
Apart from the reflection over gender consciousness, the reflection over cultural identity is added as well to unfold the series of Blue and White Porcelain. The seemingly still life of Blue and White Porcelain is in fact born from the artist’s imagination, just like a beautiful life that is based on Utopia that does not exist.
除了性別意識的反思外，亦加進了文化認同的反思，自此開始了青花瓷的系列。看似寫生的青花瓷器，全來自於作者的想像，就像是美好的生活是建立在一個不存在的烏托邦社會。
Delight Four Seasons 甜點四季
2015-2016 | Watercolor 水彩｜15 x 15 cm*100 pieces
“Food” and “lace tablecloth” are subject matters the artist has been creating with for years. With the visual ambiguity, the portrayal of food carries the feelings and desire of humans. It traverses betwixt the speakable and unspeakable, the visual experience and psychological imagination, as well as superego and id, so as to correspond with the human nature “for food and visual delight”
「食物」和「蕾絲桌布」是作者多年創作的內容物。利用視覺的曖昧性，看似畫食物，卻帶有人的情慾，遊走在可以言說和不能言說之間、視覺感受和心理想像之間、超自我和本我之間，以符應「食色性也」之人性本質。
