“感官的冥想--李天元摄影个展”展现了李天元近十年来在摄影方面的主要作品，包含了艺术家对“水”、“空气”、“灰尘”、“空间”、“时间”等非典型的摄影题材的创作。在天元的摄影手法里这些题材得到了独特的表现:借由简单的构图（图中有图）和对受摄物光影的掌握，这些抽象的概念给图象化。可以说，他的作品从微观的水、空气等自然元素到宏观的宇宙，传达了一种感官转变的冥想。
天元是一位国际知名的画家，其作品已参与过国内外大小展览，也曾获得全国油画金奖。他的摄影作品在凸显其追求架上绘画与摄影对话（如在构图及表现形式上等）的同时，又强烈地表现出他在探索摄影创作上的兴趣和成果。他的作品很难被归纳为摄影史上任何一种类型，但却能激发观者去思索摄影的本质---光影变化的视觉艺术--以及去探索他在架上绘画及摄影两者所一贯追求的 “天元式美学”：微观自然景象与宏观宇宙间的感官表现。

艺术是思想的预感
Contemplation of Sensibility—Li Tianyuan’s Photographic Solo Exhibition displays Li Tianyuan’s primary photographic works, which he has worked on for the last ten years. This exhibition features the artist’s expressions of “water,” “air,” “dust,” “time,” “space,” and so on—those untypical motifs in photography. The artist uses simple composition (a frame within a frame) and skillfully utilizes the changes of lighting on these photographed motifs, then picturizes these abstract concepts in a unique way. Li’s works transfigure a micro view of natural elements (such as water and air) into a macro view of the universe and create contemplation that results from the changes between these two views.
Tianyuan is an internationally well-known painter whose works have been shown in numerous important exhibitions in both China and abroad and who has won the golden prize of China’s national competition in oil painting. His photographic creation exposes the dialogue between painting and photography (namely composition, format, and so on) and simultaneously shows his strong interest in photography. His works are hard to assign to any historical categories of photography but rather inspire the viewer to consider the very nature of photography (the visual art of changes in lighting) and to explore his common expression in both painting and photography; that is, the so-called “Tianyuan’s aesthetic”: the expression of sensibility between the micro view of natural scenes and a macro view of the universe.
