The last part of 2021 – Poetic design

It was a concentrated moment for me while my body is trying to repeat a similar posture, I know the work is being done, and the mind is going towards the flow state, even though I’m not sure what that process is called. As I see the natural curve created by the drawknife, the aesthetic blooms. It is about the balance of mindset and respects the form brought by materials

feedbacks Open studio

It was a hard time for me during the weeks around open studio time. I don’t know how my research is connected, or what am I doing at the time. I was in a dramatic tragedy and dealing with so many dumb things. I was so unfortunate at the period of time and so many bad things happened that were not supposed to happen.

I shift my practice focus from the hard materials to the soft materials for the time. The ceramic working time is inspiring and enlightening a new way of describing.

The irregular shapes and imperfections happening in ceramic is perfectly matching with the idea of my aesthetical points.

The poetic way of natural combination with lights

暗夜已重明,花落重生时

It is interesting for me to see how natural elements/ natural forms of presentation can be shown in another material.

Referring back to the idea of patterns, I would like to write down my understandings of the surface of the wood. The idea of dot-line-surface-dimensions has been shown in this process.

What I define as “poetic” is an ethereal state of mind. Although it can rely on material manifestations, it is essentially a kind of looking-up pursuit when a person alone establishes a spiritual connection with the entire universe. This is where the “poem” is. The times have changed the form, not the content. Poetry has been passed on since it was born in human civilization.

每个人心中的诗意不尽相同,而这不同又构成了另一种诗意。王国维言:能寫真景物 、真感情者,謂之有境界。物境和心境都屬於境界。这境界说的是诗词的境界,也应是诗意的境界。诗意是人心与世间境界的共振,是充盈口目耳心的情绪。因外物而起,因思绪而兴,心中这些回忆、情绪一旦到了“不隔如在眼前”,也就是诗意了。

The poetry in everyone’s heart is not the same, and this difference constitutes another kind of poetry. Chinese historian and poet Wang Guowei said: Those who can write the scenery and true feelings are said to have realm. Both the physical state and the state of mind belong to the state. This realm refers to the realm of poetry, and it should also be the realm of poetry. Poetry is the resonance of the human heart and the realm of the world, and it is the emotion that fluids the mouth, eyes, ears and heart. It arises from objects and thrives with thoughts. Once these memories and emotions in the heart are just like in front of us even it’s not, it becomes poetic.
