黑料不打烊

“Our surroundings, whether natural or built, have a tremendous influence on our state of mind and have the power to shape our lives. I find myself longing for silence, stillness, and spaciousness in my life and in my studio practice. For many years, I have been striving to create work that embodies the essence of quiet openness. I was born and grew up in the crowded cities of subtropical Taiwan, and have been living in Maine since 2001. During recent winters, I have had the opportunity to spend some time alone in a rustic cabin in the remote Eastern Mountains of Maine. The seemingly endless vistas of snow-covered landscapes astonished me. Quiet and untouched white terrain, devoid of auditory and visual clutter, provides a spacious dimension where I am invited to enter and to just be. The Liminal series reveals my interest in the nature of seeing, and how our visual experiences influence our perception of reality. Working with pictorial depth and vision field, each work is a limen, a transformative threshold, into a contemplative and boundless state of being.” - Ling-Wen Tsai (蔡姈妏)
