碩士 === 台南應用科技大學 === 美術系碩士班 === 105 === Ladies and gentlemen, we have arrived at our next stop. Please get your luggage ready to explore ‘ next stop: The View from The lnside’. In the train of life, we always focus on moving forward with no stop as the train progresses, but forget the wonderful things around us. Where then shall we get on the train to get to the landscapes we look forward to? Everyone has their own inner landscape. If you have already had it firmly in your hands, take good care of it because it will gradually fade away over time. 　　‘Exploring inner landscapes’ is an experiment of intimate conversations between self and the body through creation. The purpose is to evoke perception of the outer world at the spiritual level through sensory experiences and transform what is seen into images. Instead of repeating and replicating real objects, what is hidden inside is excavated and transformed into internal symbols of emotions by combing the thoughts to sort out the threads. This is a process of self-transcendence and self-creation, quite like the journey of life. This creation recounts how the author lives in peace with pressure in life and how the yearning is induced for the pleasure brought by emptying the mind and pursuing and experiencing the tranquility in life while immersed in nature. By seeking emotional sustenance in the natural environment and realizing in the process of self-discovery that the eye of minds keeps recording the emotional impressions at the moment of environmental changes amid the intertwinement and overlapping with the flow of time, the author tries to find the essence of life and capture the ever-extending force of life through creation with imagination spurred by the remaining memories. This paper consists of five parts. (1) Introduction: This part explains motivation and methods of this study and the content describes how one releases emotions and how the yearning is induced to look for peace of mind in the natural environment. (2) Theoretical discussion: This part describes how experiences with the natural environment accompanied by sensory perception from the body as the medium trigger transference, which in turn evokes emotional resonance and how such resonance catalyzes the reemergence of memories and awakes enlightenment hidden deep inside. (3) Discussion and analysis of this creation: this part examines how one, upon going back to the roots of nature, discovers that ‘time’ and ‘space’ are in parallel and constantly extend and expand with life. (4) This part outlines the analysis of and the discourse on the mediums, techniques and forms of expression in this creation and is divided into three stages. Stage 1 ‘Past Landscapes Series’ explores life and examines how the existence of one’s physical sensations is related to the environmental stimulation one is exposed to. Stage 2 ‘Enlightening Words Series’ demonstrates the tenacity of life. One’s emotions are projected and represented by the development and formation of mountains to express the transfer of temporal and spatial distance between the emotional space within the subject and the object. With one’s own observations, one then derives an outlook on life in a different perspective from the natural environment. Stage 3 ‘Serene Nature Series’ pays tribute to life and explores the mutual respect between people and between mankind and the environment. We have obtained spiritual satisfaction with the help of nature. In today’s constant pursuit of material life, we should reflect on what we can do for the this discourse by expounding how artistic creation helps achieve absolute freedom of creation and redefining self-worth.
