Exposition：
Paint splashes across the canvas ambitiously. Chuang Che takes inspiration directly from nature and translates it into his own creations. From combination of Eastern essence and Western media; he abandons the imitation of nature and explores his environment alternating between abstract and figurative forms. Towering mountains are condensed into simple vocabulary of free flowing lines. Chuang Che’s psychological and sensory experience creates dreamlike scenarios, comparable to the twilight sky spilling its radiance onto the land. In Sunset over Mountain Lake Shore, the intertwining structural composition presents an ethereal light rhythm, in additional to the texturize layering of colors. Shadows of the wind and mountains possess opaque presence; the tranquilized landscape is both calm and inviting.
Born into a scholarly family, Chuang Che’s father was the formal vice president of National Palace Museum. Growing up within intellectual temperament, traditional erudite enthusiasm is deeply rooted in his character. Under the instruction of master Chu Teh-Chun, he aims to modernize conventional Chinese ink-drawings. On his travel to Europe and America, his aesthetic horizon expanded drastically when encountering Abstract Expressionist style. He reexamines the infinite possibilities of uniting aestheticism of the East and West. In his practice of traditional ink-drawing he finds relevance in each and every brushstroke. “The traditional penmanship of flow, pause, density transition, space allocation, and changes in size, all became a different form of fundamental visual training for me.” Chuang Che reckons new elements of union between two heritages into years of ancient wisdom. In seeks for life’s meaning, he finds answers within nature and its ever-changing spirits.
