敦煌系列,选材敦煌石窟,见证着一方文化的荣耀与沧桑。很多年前过去采风,买了很多莫高窟壁画的书籍带回来。这些年每到忙碌之余,时不时都会翻看这些画册,重新回味那片美艳、精湛的稀世珍宝。
喧嚣过后是沉寂。我不想我的作品给人太多躁动感,我希望画面带去的是安静之后的沉思。满怀虔诚和敬意,在作这一组作品时,我通过构图等一列处理,有意识的弱化宗教意义,凸显历史与文化内涵,并摒弃了现代化的综合性材料,只一笔一划,原原本本,如传统工艺样,只为镌刻其美,愿观者感动于心。
Artistic statement:
The Dunhuang series, selected from Dunhuang Grottoes, witnesses the glory and vicissitudes of the culture of Far East. Many years ago, I went there and bought some materials on the murals of the Mogao Grottoes. Through all these years, every time I feel tired and empty, I will flip through these books to recollect the beautiful and exquisite rare treasures of Dunhuang art.
The ends of all the hustle and bustle come to the eternal soundlessness. So I don't want my work bring the audience much mood, what I want is a contemplation along with all those peaceful images on the picture. when I made this group of works, I ,with piety and respect, purposely weakened the religious meaning, highlighted the historical and cultural connotations. I abandoned the modern techniques and all mixed materials, just use the most traditional way of painting as a way to pay tribute to those great ancient mural painter. This traditional craftsmanship is only to engrave its beauty.
