Artwork Appreciation
HSIEH Chi-Chang has studied in Spain, and the passing of time as well as his return to Taiwan has altered his memories. The artist thus employed intuitive methods to record his consciousness and sensations, manifesting them within the Disappearance of Memories series.
In the Disappearance of Memories 14, abstract visual languages were employed to playfully create and reinterpret his imaginations. Creation is used to identify energy sources that feed his soul. The artist employed cool tones smudged repeatedly against each other to leave large number of brush trails. The composition is decorated with numerical readings and geometric lines that represent elements of rationality interspersed within this emotional and visual setting. HSIEH Chi-Chang aims to locate intersection points and lines in order to outline his disappearing memories, using creative energies to create a truthful self-portrait.
