ARTIST'S STATEMENT
I have been looking forward to the
simple richness and elegant tranquility.
As for the life style and artistic style expressed in "form
and process", it is my understanding that different details be
found out on the relatively perfect exterior surface to bring
out an aesthetic preference and character in the form of its
entirety. Just like the Chinese characters, the different
structures composed of different strokes embody quite different
meanings. It is also the same to the human faces which are
completely different from each other though they seem identical.
The different details represent colors and varieties in the
life. The life is both a process and a form and the art is a
process more than a form. The form and process may be regarded
as both a way to create an elegant life and realm of spirit and
a material requisite for our common life.
I like the language of ceramics: gentle, elegant, implicit,
highly privileged and peaceful. It has an inherent air of refinement and tranquility. In my opinion, all of these
qualities are the very reflections of the features of the
Chinese culture. As a matter of fact, my fascination with such
materials reapers to my yearning for the "Classic spirit" in my
heart.
