Taipei based artist Liu, Hsin-Cheng has always been fascinated by simple forms and
colour stirred by their visual complicity. He spent a year in Central Saint
Martin of Art & Design College in London to explore the relationship between
sound and graphic, intending to create a systematic visual communication
triggered by simply talking. As for his first exhibition in China, Liu, Hsin-Cheng
takes his sensibility into a journey with basic shapes. The way he deals
with dimension, form, proportion presents his understanding of global
graphic culture, which reveals a romantic side of the visual nature of
geometry.
While artist Jason Cool pays more attention on the metaphor within the
context of geometry. He often uses objects and materials exist in our
everyday life to create modular system-like installation. By looking into
basic concept of dimension, Jason exams the class of different shapes and
makes implications of social hierarchy of our life. It becomes more
meaningful when found object been introduced into his practice, as the
connection between commodity culture and economy class. Apparently he puts
effort on achieving the geometric order at mathematical level, but the
actual work is in the result of a kind of failed structure. It creates the
conflict of salability and riot and leaves the feeling of uncanny elegancy.

 

Perhaps the title of ‘Flatland’ recalls back the intellectual story of
geometry, in another hand, it lead us proudly representing two talented
artists at FakeSpace, where we constantly bring up the fresh art and
interesting stuff for people here in Beijing.

台北艺术家刘心正长期痴迷于几何形体和颜色序列的复杂性。他曾经在伦敦中央
圣马丁设计与艺术学院研修图形与声音的关系,并致力于开发交谈所诱发的交互式图形视
觉系统。作为他第一个在中国的展览,刘心正把自己的感知度带入到基本形体的世界,对
于形体,维度,比例的独特掌控,是深植了他对与图形文化的理解之中的。他的创作为我们
展现出几何视觉世界的浪漫特质。
而艺术家张磊(Jason Cool)似乎更关注形体关系所引发的社会隐喻。通过重新考查维度的概
念,来看待它所造就的结构之间的界限,平面的三角形永远无法理解立体的多面体结构。
现成品在他的作品中带来至关重要的解读,让这些单纯的形体与颜色与消费文化相关联,
从而让人们想到现实生活里所面临的经济层级关系。他常常利用日常生活的现成物品来
创作类似单体延续系列的装置。表面上看,他在努力建构某种数学化的次序,但作品结果
却呈现出一种稳定和混乱的矛盾,一种失败的结构体,

希望这个展览不只是让人联想到几何世界的次序美感,我们在向基本形体的致敬的同时来
展出两位年轻有为的艺术家的作品,让FakeSpace为大家提供新鲜的艺术和有趣的东西。
