Endless Meanings V

作品賞析

CHANG Cheng-Cheng offers sketch after Zen-like sketch in his Endless Meanings series, exhibiting his state of mind in charcoal. In Endless Meanings V, Chang builds a scene of varying density and shading through repeated layering of charcoal. The strong contrasts between black and white in the upper right-hand part of the image create the appearance of the damp, speckled surface of a wall, contributing a sense of three-dimensionality and depth. Chang depicts his inner qualities through simple techniques. The varied lighting of the charcoal gives the scene the appearance of a water-and-ink painting, making it particularly Zen-like and full of meaning.
