JEN Fu-Cheng / 鄭福成｜活水2025-觸動

Although my landscape paintings retain the simple form of “mountains” at times, what I seek to express is the form of life. Each person’s life is like mountains, varied in size, each with its own height and scenery. The colors and forms subtly hint at the twist and rhythm in both landscape and life, suggesting the harmony and contrast in the painting, as well as the happiness and conflict in life. I intentionally and unintentionally project my feelings about life onto the presentation of landscapes. Casually and serendipitously, within the forms of mountains and streams symbolizing the greater life entities, I lay down intentional and unintentional shapes to express my limited thoughts and feelings towards life.

 

我的山水畫雖偶爾保留「山」的簡單形式，但想表達的卻是生命的形式。每個人的一生如同大大小小山巒，各有各的高度和景致。色彩造型既暗示山水的轉折律動，也暗示生命的轉折律動；既暗示畫面的和諧及對比，也暗示生命的幸福與衝突。我有意無意地把自己的生命感受投射到山水的表現上，隨性、隨緣地在象徵大生命體的山水形式中，鋪上一些有意無意的造形，表達我對生命一知半解的想法和感受。
