Fukuei Cape

作品賞析

CHIU Yong-Jin is skilled in using eastern gouache painting as an art media for creating artworks depicting daily travels, disassembling and putting back together experiences of these roundabout journeys. Fukuei Cape is dominated by a verdant mountain forest. CHIU Yong-Jin deliberately elevated the island in the lake and added a red and white Fukuei Lighthouse at its tallest peak to highlight the value of the artificial construct. The Fugui Cape Lighthouse provides geographical navigation and is also well-known for its historical value. Just as CHIU Yong-Jin has said, “I’ve used the cartographic methods and incorporated them with emotional cognition and scenes in my memory, converting the result into a re-assembled landscape to manifest the ideas and sensations experienced during the journey.”
