Sung-Chih Chen: Time After Time
鈥淭ime After Time - Sung-Chih Chen鈥檚 personal exhibition鈥 showed the work 鈥淯ntitled 2015鈥 in response to Gallery 456鈥檚 invitation for a site specific installation in New York. The work continued the lingering depictions of time and traces in the work of Sung-Chih Chen; the coincidence of blooming flowers in the spring in New York elicited the artist鈥檚 curious observations for weak matters in the natural scenery. In the work, recycled printed sheets and plastic bags were molded to create a space with fallen blossoms to elicit entangled likes, dislikes, and refusals in the viewer. In this imaginative space gathered complex emotions, full of invalid and cheap materials in the world of consumption. The artist used the artistic event to continue the meaning of material existence, creating a mosaic of the disappearing marks of time from the collected fragments. An overview of the connected and remaining parts, the artist guides the viewer in a process of emptying meaning and using speed to convert emotional perception. Between form and meaning, it teases the viewer鈥檚 artistic philosophical thought about existing materials, the displays, and life. Flowers blooming and falling are normal phenomena of natural life and existence, 鈥渇alling flowers (Time After Time)鈥 are manifested in another value to re-evaluate the deep meaning of the rise and fall of life (substance).
