Int Studio & Seminar 1: Bridge Project 5: Reintegrated Selves/Blind Reflections

 

Compared to an artist, I am more willing to be called a creator. I totally agree with Xiaobo Wang, a Chinese writer, who said: “The true meaning of art is to be unpredictable.”  Because art is unpredictable, it is so hard to be represented by any kind of forms such as painting, writing, and filming. However, painting and filming are all called art by the public just because they are much closer to the art itself than any other normal things in our daily life. I think what efforts I did as an artist from the beginning to the end as an artist are guiding my audience and expressing my understanding of the world by my talents such as drawing and filming. What the audience can really know is just my feeling. Now, especially in our generations, it does not matter what art really is because real artists only force themselves to understand the world instead of explaining. For example, when you are writing, you can never show to your audience what things really are. You can only write is your own feeling and experience of the world itself. And that is what I am looking for as an artist in my whole life.
