It is a great thing to be inspired, whether this happens consciously or not, all things that we see, hear or feel accumulate in a stream of resources for our inspiration.
That is why an artwork is so personal for the artist and so relevant to the time and place that inspired it.
One’s body of work could be seen as an abstract piece of history.
Today, the ground under my feet expands, the horizons I can see grow larger as I live in the most exciting time, The internet era.
Many can argue that consuming digital content does not compare to an accomplished experience and they are right, it is an outside view of the experience that leaves room for desire and imagination.
Just like the fantasy book without images that allowed me to dress the characters in my favorite colors, a youtube video from the Chinese Culture Festival gives me only an intriguing glimpse into the traditional Chinese theatre world.
The bright colors, the heightened emotions portrayed by the actors, passionate acts and flamboyant imagery create a strong impression on me and that is just enough to be inspired. I can add on layers of symbols and abstract elements that speak truth about my emotions.
Once an unaccomplished experience, rendered in my imagination and transformed into another art form, will hopefully some day inspire others.
