李止｜溪山
中国人历史上极爱山水，山水一脉，不止世代生息其中，也是几千年中国人的精神家园，所以在中国，有有形之山，也有无形之山。有形之山是自然的山川；无形之山，就是传统文化这座高山。山一直在，总是非常沉默、高傲，只是百年来国人渐渐视如不见。
2014－2019，五六年间我循先贤足迹漫游山水间，希望以摄影寻找中国文化自己的脉络，由此得《山水三章》。
山行由北向南游走。
洪谷根据五代巨匠荆浩的行迹寻踪，在洪谷山中以镜面壁。
溪山自北宋大师范宽的家乡耀州开始，从西北耀州.辋川，到中原.江南，漫游溪山胜处，访禅问道。拍了一年后，又思应到古人未到处，又西到藏区，东到大海，汲古之余，试图以纯粹传统影像的形式创作一组更有实验性的作品。
Chinese have a conventional favor for landscape. Mountains and waters are not only home to Chinese, but also their spiritual recess. Therefore in China, there are both visible mountains and invisible mountains. Visible ones are natural, while invisible ones are cultural. The mountains are always there, silent and lofty. However in the recent decades they were gradually overlooked.
From 2014 to 2019 I have been following the predecessors’ steps to wander around the mountains and waters in the hope of identifying the lineage of Chinese culture with photography. Landscape in Three Chapters is the final product.
To complete Travel in Mountains I started from the North and headed for the South.
To complete Honggu I followed the step of Jing Hao, the master in the Five Dynasties, and started my own creation in Mount Honggu.
To complete Xishan, I started from Yaozhou, the hometown of Fan Kuan, a master in the Northern Song Dynasty, and travelled through Wangchuan, Central Plains and regions south of the Yangtze River. During my trip I visited all kinds of wonderful scenery and acquainted myself of many hermits. After one year of creation I decided that I should set my feet on places that had never been trodden by predecessors, so I went westward to Tibet and later Eastward to the coasts. While trying to learn from ancient masters, I also attempt to create some more experimental works with pure traditional photography.

李 止
1975年生于河南封丘耕读之家，现为职业艺术家，居北京，从事影像与架上绘画创作。
自幼一直以中国传统的师承方式学习艺术，后游学于中国美术学院，清华美术学院 ，艺术研究院，国家画院胡伟工作室。在创作中，基于十年学艺所得和传统诗书的滋养，从艺术形式上对中国与西欧两大传统绘画溯流而上，辨其源流，从精神性上逐渐由儒学的熏染渐进于中国禅宗与道家思想的根性，由书房画室的研习转向踏遍青山，体会山川自然，草木清华间的气息流转，生生不息。由此个人在摄影方面的创作也随游踪所至渐渐变化，涤去旧貌，所摄所作，既是银盐颗粒在山水烟云间的跌宕咏叹，也是大自然承受工业文明重荷所发的悲怆长吟。九年故山行旅影像考察后，发表《问水》《山行》《洪谷》《溪山》《遁》五个风景与观念摄影作品，之后重提画笔，进入影像与架上绘画的综合表现。
