莫依偎我, 我习于冷, 志于成冰, 莫依偎我 别走近我, 我正升焰, 万木俱焚, 别走近我 来拥抱我, 我自温馨, 自全清凉, 来拥抱我 你等待我, 我逝避临, 彼一如我, 彼一如我 Don’t cling on me, I get used to be cold, Coming from ice, Don’t cling on me. Don’t get close to me, I am rising, Burning all wood, Don’t get close to me. Come to hug me, I am warm, Cool all the way Come to hug me. You wait for me, I am passing away, You just like me, I just like…

《遮蔽你的不只是双眼》 此件作品将《笙歌韶乐在其中》中的一件作品《笙歌韶乐在其中·菊》进行抽离与演变，将其进行倒置与并置与镜子之上，其作品自身在呈现出倒影幻觉的同时，镜子中的倒影更是让观众进一步理解“遮蔽你的不只是双眼”，而是作为日程经验的“意识”，正如法国艺术家让·迪比费所讲“人类将自己放在了经验积累的监狱里”，此件作品既是对于日常经验与意识的反思与解构。 Your Vision isn’t impeded Only By Eyes 2014 Mixed materials 100x100x80cm This series is derived from one piece of the series work: Beauty Inside – Chrysanthemum. It further develop the question that how our understanding and awareness shape our perception.

“人类对混乱感到恐怖至极， 通过搭建雨伞来区别自己与这愈发混乱的世界。他画雨伞的底部就像天上的苍穹，乱转，生活，并死于这把保护伞之下。死后留给他的子孙，这把伞成了一个圆顶，拱顶，直到人们最终开始觉得有什么东西不太对劲。” D.H. 劳伦斯 “In his terror of chaos, (man) begins by putting up an umbrella between himself and the everlasting chaos. Then he paints the underside of his umbrella like a firmament. Then he parades around, lives, and dies under his umbrella. Bequeathed to his descendants, the umbrella becomes a dome, a vault, and men at last begin to feel that something is wrong.” D.H. Lawrence 《秘密的表面》系列作品 意义总是与厚度相联系，这有意地将表面去意义化。人与事物如果缺乏复杂性与强度就会被认为是肤浅。《秘密的表面》系列作品颠覆这个逻辑，在这个并不尽如人意的世界，不将任何精神性的表征当作理所当然，而是将“表面”构想为认知和感受主体与对外部世界的位置。…
固定思维与成长型思维，你是哪一个？ Fixed mindset vs growth mindset which one are you? 《秘密的表面》系列作品 意义总是与厚度相联系，这有意地将表面去意义化。人与事物如果缺乏复杂性与强度就会被认为是肤浅。《秘密的表面》系列作品颠覆这个逻辑，在这个并不尽如人意的世界，不将任何精神性的表征当作理所当然，而是将“表面”构想为认知和感受主体与对外部世界的位置。 《Secret Surface》 Meaning is associated with depth, which implicitly tends to devalue the surface; people and things lacking complexity and intensity are seen as superficial. SECRET SURFACE reverses this logic, and presents works that do not take any kind of spiritual afterworld for granted alongside unsatisfactory reality, but conceive of flatness as the location of experience itself, both…

《Secret Surface－New Born》 Meaning is associated with depth, which implicitly tends to devalue the surface; people and things lacking complexity and intensity are seen as superficial. SECRET SURFACE reverses this logic, and presents works that do not take any kind of spiritual afterworld for granted alongside unsatisfactory reality, but conceive of flatness as the location of experience itself, both in terms of subjectivity and towards the outer world. “In…
