Brief Statement
Sien He
Many of my early works were related to Chinese traditional culture.
They are related to, for instance, legends, acupoint treatment, the
Five Elements, the Eight Trigrams, and main and collateral channels
in human body, of course, including face.
If there is no tradition or inheritance, there is no future. The
context of the past is always important, because it is the soil, the
memory, and is something you can never get rid of.
Listening and being listened, we crave both. The colloquial
interaction as such is where the beauty lies.
Like a plant that feels the subtle changes of weather and soil, an
artist does the same. He feels and extracts nutriment from the
surroundings - history and cultural environment - until he and the
destiny coalesces into one.
As always I keep a watchful eye on the things around me, full of
curiosity and with the belief that every human being in this
constantly changing world is blessed, for we are experiencing every
moment of the life. I am interested in is to record personal
experience of using an artistic way, constantly updated methods. If
these methods can make me exchange of the feelings with others to
survive, this is a miracle and significance from the arts.
In recent years, my works, Using the mix materials such as Chinese
rice paper, UK coffee, Chinese tea, Chinese ink, and the use of the
technology such as sketch, paste, burning and so on. but find an own
language format in between the this two, there are both that traces
of ink painting of China and the image effect of printing- making,
photography, mimeograph and Chinese ink effect is the combination of
clever, let me find everything new and fresh.
