Design Description:
The pine unfurls like a fan, like a fish tail swaying in the water. Emerging from entwined branches, carp and pine exist in beautiful harmony. The design draws from traditional auspicious elements. The pine symbolizes longevity, fish symbolizes prosperity. The artwork presents a visual contrast among the dynamic energy between the fish, and profound tranquil pine trees. We join philosophy with auspicious symbols to offer a new form of blessing.
Zhuang Zi’s The Butterfly Dream is a philosophical classic that presents a state of neither here nor there, both real and illusory and is the inspiration behind this design. Has the fish become the pine or has the pine become the fish? Another interesting way to view this piece, is whether the bottom part of the design is a tree trunk in the mountain range, or a Taihu rock under the lake? Only the viewer would know and take his or her imagination to fly.
作品展现松树挺拔,松叶成扇形展开,如同幻化的鱼尾,亦如天边的云彩或是水底的海草,两条锦鲤仿佛从虯枝浮出,松树与鱼互成和谐大美,生物以气相息,合二为一的表现。传统吉祥元素南松寓意长久、永恆,金鱼寓意金玉满堂,将哲学思考与吉祥文化的重新诠释,让作品充满生生不息的力量,又同时达到宁静致远的禅意。
作品主体可以看做是南松的参天树干,亦可是水底的太湖石,南松可以是松树,也可以看做是水底的水草倒影? 多重视角与充满想像力的诠释,让观者能如同在水底欣赏太湖石的岁月痕迹,又或者是从天空中看到参天大树,近树顶位置的宽阔气度。动静,阴阳,虚实,快慢,天空与水面的对比,用视觉衝突的概念想传达遇见即永恆的美感。
