OBSERVE THE WORLD IN A NEW WAY

This is a series of paintings depicting random views of my backyard. Inspired by the pervasive anxiety in our fast-paced modern life, I focus on the neglect of slow looking and the inability of being present in today’s society.

In this series of work, strokes were applied and moved in accordance with the flow of visual observation. The consciousness of gaze would lead me to paint the entire picture. They were only guided by “present moment”- the consciousness of time focuses on the point of interest. As I see, these paintings are the result of the stream-of-consciousness. More like improvisation, they start from any point on canvas, so unpredictably painted without any corrections.
