Statement

The Sound of Silence

The background of Woodcutting and the little experience of ceramic in China, which is one of my many passions. I began drawing with landscapes and still lives. If I tried to tell the story of something behind the cluttered and vandalized brushstrokes, and there’s no better way to represent the emotion than a sudden flash of memory. It fills the area on the painting with a mapping, so as we mentioned, some feeling have to be performed into form and content wiht other consciousness behind them. In my dreams, we live in the black and white. But there's still a lot of gray areas on the world, and a lot of areas. Some of the areas we couldn't recognise if we've really ever been or maybe a fictitious world once appears in our dreams. But it shows us, that’s the way life is. And then, I couldn't clearly remember that, since when I began to summarize all the emotions with black and white. They are abstract to me, color ist not. But they are not quite so simple always as black and white. We are getting older, and we become much more tolerant to accept the grey areas in our life and have been being caught in such a dilemma, that we are forced to be more mellower. If conflict always exists, and if black and white always clash. The white starts to make sense only if the black could be admired. Black and White, they will tell us the truth.
