Order and disorder


Order and disorder


Order and disorder, describes the way of the artist’s creating. In the eye of the artist, our nature includes the spaces of order and disorder at the same time. In the space of disorder, it is full of infinite possibilities and uncertainties. Just like the running river, no matter rapid or tardy, is still flowing forward and never stops. In the space of order, it is full of extreme sense. Just like the alternation of day and night, the change of four seasons, are all designed to balance the energy of disorder. Between the spaces of order and disorder, contrariety and conflict are produced, and then we could perceive the incredible beauty.

At the beginning of the artist creation, it was in a free status. The spiritual thinking and meditation construct the initial work. Then, unlimited dots, lines, and faces come out. It’s just like the chaos of the cosmos, not only full of uncertainties, but extreme power of life and creation. The artist himself as a creator, use his intelligent and sense to make everything in the law of the nature. With the flowing of the time, the disorder will return to the order.

The artist believes that interesting things usually happen at the moment of contrariety and conflict. The incredible beauty is also happened at that moment. So he tends to create within two statuses, one is the disorder, which is the origin of the creation, full of unexpected amazement from sensitivity and romance; the other is order, which turns the status to sense and adds the element of balance. Trying to discover the combination of these two statuses, you’ll see the beauty.

Statement of Order and Disorder





序 order & disorder


以序為主題,是在描述藝術家(Peter Lee)的創作方式。在藝術家的眼中,我們的大自然同時存在著有序與無序(order & disorder)的空間。在無序的空間裡,充滿了無限的可能性與不確定性,就像是流動的河水,時快,時慢,一切隨著環境的不同,有不同的變化,但永遠是不停地向前推進。在有序的空間裡,透露了極端的理性,如同晝夜四季的交替,一切的內容都是被設計來平衡無序空間裡的能量。在這樣有序與無序的空間中,就產生了對立和衝突,並從中發現出不可思議的「美」。
所以藝術家在創作初期,是處於一個放鬆的狀態,讓任何靈動和冥想來構成畫面,創作出不拘束的點、線、面。如同大自然初始的渾沌(chaos)狀態,一切的景象充滿了不確定性,但其背後卻隱藏了無限的生命力與創造力。而藝術家本身同時又是造物者(creator),運用智慧和理性,讓大自然的運行終將遵循一定的法則,任何的失序現象,都會隨著時間的推進和空間的變化,回歸正軌。
藝術家認為,有趣和引人注意的事情,往往發生在對立和衝突的時刻。在碰觸和交集之間,產生藝術家眼中不可思議的美感。所以藝術家刻意用二種狀態來創作,其一的disorder為創意的來源,永遠充滿不期而遇的驚奇,是以感性和浪漫為出發點;其二為order,逐漸將創作的態度轉為理性,介入平衡的元素,並試圖去尋找兩者狀態之間的交集,亦即為「美」的存在。

Artist statement 創作自述

创作自述

自2002年七月远赴英伦,其在创作一幅作品的过程中, 在初期我未曾预想画面的表现会是如何? 我会试着平静心情, 专注自己的呼吸去面对眼前空白的画布, 等到信心一刻的来到时, 我会摒住呼吸,运用身体的力量, 将力量传递到画笔上,进而将颜料表现在画布上。至于自信的来源是什么? 我所运用的方法是想象我是一座屹立不摇的大山和澎湃的大河, 当河水流动时, 有时会因遇到障碍而流速减缓了, 但当过了障碍后,一切的流畅和自由又再次的来到。所以想象我是一座大山往往是我运笔自信的来源, 而大河无穷尽的变化, 会是我画面构成的基本理论。运用身体力量的传递和呼吸的调节来构成画面的点、线和面。

我可以解释气韵生动和动态冥想是我作画的方法。绘画对我而言是一种视觉创意的开发,也是一种身心健康的活动而我也称它们为健康绘画。


Artist Statement

I was a resident artist in north London and moved to England, United Kingdom since July 2002. Personally, I think that art is a form of self-reflection and self-release. To me the process of painting is like meditation. My focus is just on one thing---paint. I realized the more I paint, the healthier I get. Therefore, painting for me is a healthy activity and it has already become a part of my life. When I paint, I do not preconceive what the painting will look like. I just imagine I am still like a strong mountain and flow like a great river. Stability is me source of confidence and forward ahead is my only way to go. When painting, sometimes I am free; sometime I am struggle. After doing a series of paintings, I found myself frequent contending with an innate ability to compose well-balanced arrangement of forms and shapes, no matter what I do.
