走过的路,没有目的或者充满幻想,需要心的探索。有时候,没有方向,或许就是一种方向。真实一点,面对现实,也是一种美丽。
The road traveled, with no purpose or full of fantasy, needs heart to explore. Sometimes, no direction may be a direction. Being true and facing reality, is also a kind of beauty.
08年独立艺术家啜泉毕业于广西艺术学院。他的创作灵感源自爱与梦想、生活状态、街头行人、电影一幕和不期而遇。他经常参加公益活动,用色彩温暖人心,把爱传给需要的人。他认为创作是一种难得的幸福,创作过程是一种美丽的探索,一种寻找自我表达的方式。他从小就喜欢孤独,也喜欢黑夜中天马行空的想象。在远离尘嚣的角落,等待被开启的世界!Chuo Quan, an independent artist, graduated from Guangxi Academy of Art in 2008. His creative inspirations are love, dreams, living conditions, street people, movie scenes and unexpected encounters. He often participates in public welfare activities, warms people's heart with color, and spreads love to those who need it. He thinks creating is a raw happiness, the process of creating is a beautiful exploration, a way to find self-expression. He grew up to like imagining the night sky as much as loneliness. In a corner away from the noise, he is ready for the world to blossom!他的创作风格一直秉持不忘初心。他的艺术作品都是他对当下的一种自我表达,记录着他当下的一种真实状态。他认为一个作品只能代表某一刻的想法或片段,很难表达艺术家的全部。他喜欢用色彩构造一个缤纷的世界,或单纯浪漫或清醒严肃。他的每一副作品都装饰着一个梦或诉说着一个故事。在真实与虚幻之间游走,让你获取一种安然自得的静谧,回忆往事,看见自己的影子。心灵是一面镜子,里面装着什么取决于你面向哪里。芳华已逝,记忆犹在!His creative style has always remained intact. His artworks are the self-expression of the present, recording the true state of his life. He believes that a work can only represent the idea or fragment of a certain moment, and it is difficult to express the artist's whole. He likes using color to construct a romantic or awakening world. Each of his works is decorated with a dream or tells a story - lets you gather a sense of peace and quiet between the real and the unreal, recall the past, see your own shadow. The mind is a mirror and what it shows depends on where you are facing. Youth is gone, memory is still there!或许某年某月某日的某一刻,留在我们内心深处的是某个最幸福的记忆。用遗憾的丝带编织庄严夺目的彩虹,彰显我们作为万物之灵的理智与笑对坎坷的从容。花开花落,生生不息。在时间与空间交换的区域里,遇见不一样的自我。
Perhaps the happiest memory of a moment in the future is what has been burying deep inside us. Weave a majestic rainbow with a ribbon of regret. Show our sense of spirit as the wisest of all creatures. Smile calmly at our bumps. Flowers bloom and fall, endlessly. Meet our different self in a place where time and space interchanges.
