This experimental series is a result of long-term contemplation as to how I should articulate the true faces of our environment as I have observed them. In the beginning of the experiment, I found something which has always fascinated me - that is, some community which can be likened to an isolated, self-contained manor in which any forms of competition or conflict would be excluded to ensure complete fairness and content among members of the community - a micro society which would seem to be completely alienated from our time-space. I then tried to visualize this pattern of operations in my painting in hopes of envisioning a pure environment most suitable for human living. However, as I attempted to exclude all forms of human agony from this environment and to ensure even distribution of every wealth, I soon realized that this would only result in utter insipidity. In our real, immediate situation, we often unknowingly adopt a conventional point of view even though we may be uncomfortable with it only because we didn't really bother to find our own. And once we find our own perspective, we then realize there is a gap between our own view and the world that is normally presented to us. By visualizing this pattern, we can now distance ourselves from the conventional world and confront with this universal dilemma. (Hsu Yin Ling)
