Behind the common events, the intuition always finds the hidden faiths. For Tao Wen-Yueh, creation is an inner reflection containing the sediments of emotions accumulated in passing years, the love and indulgence to his time and environment, and the expectation and desires to the future world. The lingual awareness transformed into elegant and sentiment profound color and refined symbols and signs, seems to reflect the gleams and shadows of the history, following a classic but also modern rhythm. These rich layers of images and implications along with expression free from abstract or concrete aspects make Tao Wen-Yueh’s art a wide space for plain but poetic imaginations of the literature. Behind lyric gentleness there are insistences and ambitions of a literatus.
