A Thousand words Series
- Contemporary Arts Show at Ritz 2007 |
The Image is a 'language' that exists as an abridged phrase form.
As E.H. Gombrich stated about Visual Language, lack of visual image or minimized visual image requires its observer to add the abbrivated stories into the artwork and also leads the observer to communicate
The work titled, 'A Thousand Words' in this exhibition is a familiar subject matter to many, and yet it intends that the observer would face to the full angle of the flower so that two appear to interact with each other. Overlapped layers of petals could be turned into a human face that starts talking to you, or into a thousand tongues.
Eventually, could it be that an image can deliver thousands of different stories depending on how the observer perceives and interprets it?
Telling the hidden stories is perhaps a role given to the observer, and it might be a thousand of stories that could be completed by observer?
