Yijia Wang (DIT) Triptych Project




















































The first group of pictures is about the °ÆJia Gu°Ø words. This is a special word from old traditional Chinese words. Most word°Øs shapes were from the means by themselves. People get communicated visually to describe what they observed. My responses to ßQ were °Æspace°Ø. In Chinese calligraphy, space was one of the very important ingredients. Sometimes people attended blank rather than the words selves. So I used the words that add some transmutation in order to display the special place.

The second group of pictures is about the °Æchair°Ø. One of the old chairs existed in vast seas of wax-covered paper without souls. They quietly lie on the paper to convey calm and contemplative. Another of my responses to ßQ was °Æjust a ghost of instability in the stability°Ø. As far as we know, triangle is the most stability figure. But anything didn°Øt exist absolute stability. I want to find a ghost of instability and to strengthen it. So I used the rosewood chair from the Ming dynasty. These the most firm chair when lost one leg gives people another feelings.

Dear Yi Jia

I am researching how to mix Chinese and Wetsern ink painting / drawing philosophies and am also interested in white space. in the east its the white space that is considered before the landscape (ink painting ) is started. Frequently in the west , whire space ( as pigment) is added after / during the process of making the image. The concept fo the chair with one leg also intrigues me. I hope we meet at the next event
