Along the Way

作品賞析

LIN Yi-Pei utilizes the process of drawing and illustration to generate an alien theme where realistic elements are overlapped with imaginary images in order to convey emotional responses to her surroundings. LIN Yi-Pei’s Along the Way shows a light gray colored background with a rectangular grassy plain inclined silently upon the composition. Black industrial plastic grids are arrayed across the canvas to serve as fences, while white road markings hint at the presence of a road despite the lack any obvious boundaries. By depicting this irrational and alien setting upon the canvas, LIN Yi-Pei presents an isolated and intangible atmosphere of industrialized societies, simulating the sensation of loss experienced as one comes face to face with a realistic world that shatters their fantasies.
