Work Statement:
《日常声色》系列创作于2018年,作品的灵感来自一个陌生胖女孩的照片,我发现那张照片中的人有一种特殊的华丽的美感。她好像是一尊身穿华服的雕塑。在欣赏白瘦幼的当下,我希望用这种夸张的人体来让大家重新审视另一种美。提醒观者美不应该被定义。在创作手法上,我一直对形状感兴趣,画面的方形和圆形是一种规则型,而人体则是一种不规则的型,或者说是不能被定义的型,我想这两种截然不同的型的碰撞一定会非常有意思。
The work was inspired by a photo of a strange fat girl, and I found that the person in that photo had a special kind of gorgeous beauty. She seemed to be a sculpture in fancy dress. At a time when white and thin people are appreciated, I hope to use this exaggerated human body to make people re-examine another kind of beauty. To remind the viewer that beauty should not be defined. I have always been interested in shapes in my creative approach. The squares and circles in the picture are a kind of regular type, while the human body is an irregular type, or a type that cannot be defined, and I think the collision of these two very different types will be very interesting.

Absent Gallery 闲聊
Absent Gallery:
How would you describe your creative state?
你会如何讲述自己的创作状态?
Yi:
绘画对于我来说就像是一项工程,在开始之前我会构建一个工程蓝图,设定最终呈现的结果。在审视并批准了自己的蓝图之后,制定项目的计划,控制进度最终完成自己的作品。可能因为大学时期我学习的是动画,这种进度条的规划深深的影响了我,让我对跟着感觉不设定预期的创作方式会产生安全感的缺失。Painting for me is like a project, before I start I construct a blueprint of the project and set the final result to be presented. After reviewing and approving my blueprint, I make a plan for the project and control the progress to finally finish my work. Maybe because I studied animation in college, this kind of progress bar planning has deeply influenced me, and made me feel insecure about the lack of security that comes from following the feeling of creating without setting expectations.
Absent Gallery:
What factors have influenced your creation?
请谈谈你的艺术创作受哪些因素影响?
Yi:
生活的琐事是我创作的灵感来源。朋友的一条分享,一个公众号里的信息,商场停车场里的一片光影,路口匆匆而过的行人等等。当然,也有对灵感的挑战,时间不够,想法又太多了。感谢我的朋友们分享给我灵感。
The trivialities of life are the source of inspiration for my creative work. A share from a friend, a message in a public website, a piece of light in a shopping mall car park, pedestrians hurrying past at an intersection, etc... Of course, there are also challenges to inspiration, not enough time and too many ideas. Thank you to my friends for sharing to inspire me.
Absent Gallery:
What are your upcoming plans or expectations for the artwork?
未来对作品有什么计划或期待?
Yi:
形状是我一直在研究探讨的话题。我通过不同的绘画材料,利用不同的绘画题材来呈现形状。我希望今年能把去年的《向远方》和《出口》这俩系列完成。Shape is a topic that I have been researching and exploring. I present shapes through different painting materials and utilise different painting subjects. I hope that this year I can finish the two series of last year's "Towards the Long Distance" and "Exit".
Absent Gallery:
Describe in one word your feelings or expectations as an artist about the current creative environment.
请用一个词汇描述你作为艺术家(艺术创作者)对目前创作环境的感受或期许。
Yi:
很强烈的窒息感。希望能有更多的自己的时间。
Very strong sense of suffocation. Wish I had more time to myself.
