Artwork Appreciation
HSU Hsin-Wen is skilled at using everyday items as artistic media in an attempt to initiate dialog between people and the spatial environment. True Inherent – 1001 is based on 1,001 pencils just like the one thousand and one Arabian Nights. The pencils are threaded together to form a magic carpet carrying dreams to the sky. Pencils are cut into different lengths and then re-assembled using different formations to provide the viewer with various visual fantasies. Some arrangements include sharp and conflicting tensions, while other layouts generate a gentle whisper. HSU Hsin-Wen attempts to manifest abstract sensations to recreate the true inner essence of events and objects.
