Silent by the Night

作品賞析

The creative elements and inspirations of LI Yu-Chen’s prints are her memories and traveling experiences. She believes that memories are both an accumulation and extension of time. Temporal worlds created by the brain will gradually convert landscapes in our memories into realms of fantasy. Silent by the Night shows low, slanted houses against a darkening sky with a meandering hill line in the far distance and a stream of wind-like, alluring, and mysterious white-colored objects across the sky. LI Yu-Chen re-created numerous images she has never seen before by relying on her experiences alone. To her, the memories of our mind are not real and permanent objects. Instead, they are roaming and changing entities not unlike the environment that we are in.
