anti-flowers

作品賞析

Children’s bold, unrestrained use of color and their intuitive lines and images stand in stark contrast to artist Tai Ling-Yu’s own creative approach. She accidentally created this work while using her own children ’s leftover canvas and paint. The surrounding blocks of orange and brown create a visual contrast with the central blue-green and fluorescent bouquet. Tai Ling-Yu believes that creation is a balance between rationality and sensibility. She paints as she thinks, renewing color and layers in childlike scribbles, finding cues within them let her feelings of the moment guide her. For her, flowers evoke a delicate and refined subject, yet this work is a stark contrast, with bold brushstrokes and intense colors. Therefore, Tai Ling-Yu deliberately titled it Anti-flowers, not only to showcase the work’s uniqueness within her own creative context but also to encourage the viewer’s free imagination.
