Subconscious Exploration
by Metaphysical Art Gallery
Location: Metaphysical Art Gallery
Date: 19 Nov - 25 Dec 2011

Artists always have sensitive hearts which were dyed with temperatures of each city, binding with affections of the lands. Even thought the world and society change, trends of cultures wave, the connections between lives and the environments they belong to are always far beyond what our consciousness could sense. That strong and profound awareness quietly dives into the artists’ subconscious, and transforms into the masks as the egos, full of tensive and charming expressions of life.

Metaphysical Art Gallery features the works of Wang Pan-Yuon, Yang Mao-Lin, Hwang Jyi, Su Wong-Shen, Kuo Jen Chang, Lee Min-Ze, Liao Yu An, Gary Baseman, Kwon Ki-Soo, Eddie Kang.

Wang Pan-Youn refines spirits from appearances and colors the pictures by the moral, drawing us to look deeply into a charming world which seems nil at the first glance. The shapes transforming into its unadorned images always sit at the corner in silences, leaving a huge boundless space for mystic colors to depict meaningful stories. Yang Mao-Lin’s “Made in Taiwan” sets out to search for a new totem for Taiwan so as to write a new myth. Huang Ji brews brilliant deconstructionist thinking from mysterious wonderlands of interwoven and complicated images. Su Wang-Shen utilizes the animal dog as a metaphor to represent the population ecology in Taiwan. His overlooking observation point shows an alternative sense of humor. Kuo Jen-Chang directly pictures the strong feelings of social observations into flattery seductive images. Black lines separate vulgar colors and totems, express those erotic, overthrowing, superstitious, wild, subconscious faces. Lee Ming-Tse embodies his identity as a storyteller, utilizing primitive colors, childlike strokes and humorous Lee’s symbols to unlimitedly narrate on the canvas the fairy legends and myths and experiences of folk lives. Liao Yu-an’s images always present a thick atmosphere of city scenes, based on self-image and self-awareness to sketch out a series of actions about living status and interactivities of relationships in metropolises. In Kwon Ki-soo’s “Square Forest”, tons of rainbow cubes pile up a splendid fairyland; in the brilliant forest drawn the various colors of emotions, the rippling of water is the extension of adorable dimples on Dongguri’s smile, simple but rich; cheerful but profound. Eddie Kang through the clear levels and structures express a light and soft lonesomeness in the crowded city. The canvas, colors, and hand-sewed dolls expend the imaginations of plane paintings, cheery and humorous. Gary Basement through his own creative fairy characters to humorously tell the real looks of the adult world and its secret backyard garden. His grotesque and absurd style in fact interprets the ridiculousness and vanity of the true life, the conflicts between moral enjoyments and inside struggles.
