Exposition:

Chen Hsien-tung’s works have been described as “a mixture of nature and poetry” by the artist Liu Chi-wei. Chen is particularly sensitive to the praise of nature and response to mystery. In this work “Eternal”, Chen Hsien-tung wished to sustain a balance and integration between figurative and abstract, and the semi-figurative and semi-abstract style has become his other form of expression. The works of this period are mostly blue, followed by a green tone; the large blue and green phenomenon makes the viewer seem to live in the absolute quiet night. The quiet atmosphere fills the entire screen, and transparent film adds more mystery to interpret the special texture that the brush is unable to apply.
