The Circuitous Dark River

作品賞析

Artist CHEN Yan-Ru’s work conveys the tranquility of extreme silence. He is good at taking images such as mountains, sky, land, and sea as the reflection of his mental sorrowful landscape. n his work The Circuitous Dark River, the tiered hills are piled up by spots. The crowded geometric and fragmental color blocks in the image compose the imagination of mountains and forests. The black paint filled between hills symbolizes the river at night. The artist composes the levels of the image with abundant and changeable colors and makes the work look like a tranquil landscape painting and an abstract painting with splendid colors. CHEN Yan-Ru’s brush can turn the concrete landscape into abstract geometric symbols. Each stroke and color block implies the childhood memory and nostalgia in his mind. It is also what his mental emotions depend on.
