| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣藝術大學 === 書畫藝術學系造形藝術碩士班 === 100 === Base on the subject matter of “practice within the moment”, the perspectives of this analytical exposition is to investigate an artist’s preliminary state of mind prior to and at the moment of creating a work of art. It aims to elaborate how an artist’s body, without undergoing course of scheme, converse with the space around him/her to evolve into a perception of the moment which collides with the spatial place to form a non-verbal enlightenment of sub consciousness simulating to a sudden creative inspiration and awareness. With the information collected and recorded through the physical body of the artist, possible path of creation progressively comes into sight and later determine the form of the work in time of exploration.
The core of this discussion is to carefully examine the essence of painting, sources of media and characteristics of operating interfaces during the process of creating, in course of which through extraction, transformation and utilization of new elements and instruments, innovated are the new forms of artistic expressions with more multi-variant contents. In other words, the work of arts is liberated from the original restriction of 2- dimensional framework and transforms to for example reproduction of images or interacting amalgamation of multiple components. Thus, a succession of operation such as spatial observation and management of images and new tools begin and creative ideas gradually become visible. To record this kind of creating process is also an important pattern for practice of the author’s works. The ultimate goal of this creating pattern is for the artist to truly face his/her own state and to think more clearly about philosophy of artistic creation in terms of self existence which is also the main connotation of this exposition.
This essay aims to explore the author’s reset condition at the beginning of the creating process by studying and analyzing the author’s personal works. What actually happen in the author’s state of mind at the moment of creating and how presentation of arts is influenced by the strength of space? Is it because the calling of the pre-existing implications and forms in the particular spatial place or is it merely a perceptive progression during which a creative idea sparked the artist’s awareness to perform the act of creating. The above issues will be the main focus of the author’s attempt to interpret his own works. The first half of this essay will be base upon several subject matters in the order of “practice within the moment”, “the origin”, “true self”, and “contemplation”. Throughout the course of cross examination, evidences will be extracted from the author’s related writings as supports to the author’s theories in order to further elaborate the emerge of inspiration and personal creating experience of each individual. Further more, discussion will also includes the area of how theoretical inspection clashes against practice of creating as to the objective project of work at times conflicts with the artist’s disarray state of mind during the development of an art work. The two contradicting sources of influence, “dragging” and “compression” are the products of this instability interwoven by synchronization and contradiction. The latter half will focus on reproduction of “conception” and maneuver of “intermediary condition”. It will continue the previous line of investigation which will step by step lead to the concept and action of creating and finally, discussion of how and the importance of the created works become active participants in the “on the scene” activity. As the author’s works, an interactive connection can be dictated in between the spatial place and the works in display; the works are always manipulated accordingly with regards to the actual condition of the exhibition environment to come up with a solution which best presents the essence of the displays. With this format in mind, the author hopes to propose this new related concept of “practice within moment” as the foundation of his artistic composition and research.
