Subtraction & Simple is comprised of two important elements in life –to reduce and then to simplify. This serves as a reminder to clarify one’s own desires to construct all ideas, no matter how large, within a controlled and realistic scope in order to avoid derailment. This is a linear philosophy to use simple concepts to create ideas, to negate darkness with light, to combat weakness by applying strength.
As a child, drawing on paper was a form of expression to unleash emotions; As an adult, that continued as a way to convert thoughts onto fabric in order to communicate.
All mediums are actually like that paper, bearing different emotions for every type of moment –allowing one to apply words on the mind or favorite colors. They provide a channel of self-expression or a form of personal therapy, reminding us that the highs and lows experienced are nothing more than a small fraction of our lives, and that living a good life should be the primary goal.
關於減簡
「減」與「簡」是做為生活上最重要的兩個元素,如字義「減」與「簡」,減去多餘的留下必須的。
提醒自己減去過多的慾望,再大的想要也必需控制在一定的範圍之內,才不會出軌、亂了調。
小時候在畫畫是為了宣洩情緒,長大後把想法畫在布料上作為溝通的方式。
所有的媒介其實就像紙一樣承載每刻不同的情緒,把想說的話喜歡的顏色放在上面,就像一種自我療癒的療程。
我喜歡用簡單的概念來做為發想,像是幾何型或是線條,格子交疊後所構成的網能夠弱化過於耀眼的光線,簡化過於陰翳的沈重。
