Landscape 58

作品賞析

CHEN Chien-Jung’s recent works are mainly focused upon illustrations of an architectural space. His creations include personal experiences and his current surroundings that have been internalized to form his urban personality. Landscape 58 is composed of two symmetrical window-like panels depicting the development of structural steel for industrial purposes. Automatist techniques were employed to create drip trails and large color blocks that cover most of the canvas. Repeated rubbing and adjustments create a composition that shows multiple overlapping memories and imageries, allowing the artist to employ the process of artistic creation to uncover fragments of his inner memories. It is hoped that the combination would help create a familiar yet diverse memory of our urban life while leaving plenty of spaces for readers to interpret the visual messages conveyed.
