Birds Sing and Flowers Radiate Their Fragrance

作品賞析

CHEN Hsiang-Ling is a skilled oil painter who often integrates embroidery within her works, depicted using western realism techniques to generate compositions with elements of oriental atmosphere. Birds Sing and Flowers Radiate Their Fragrance depicts finely embroidered birds and blooming red peony. Complex layering, fold lines along the fabric, images of splendidly colored flowers and birds clad in bright plumage, and the blossoming peony flowers have been interwoven, corresponding to hidden meanings behind the intangible and physical elements between objects and its respective images. CHEN Hsiang-Ling has built a surreal atmosphere and employed overall composition to express the transient nature of human experiences and to investigate the very meaning of life itself.
