CHEN QIUCHI - 陈秋池
Art comes from life, from the artist feelings and
concerns.
WORKS
These faces or screams or laughs, crying and laughing expressions call
to Chen for his own destiny of mankind interwoven with peace not
war, and to protect the environment!
My works are schemas composed of picture symbol of human head. These
‘symbols’ are accumulating and expanding as viruses, or guffaw or outcry, so
as to express the difficult choice of human in development. That is, whether
human are to choose peaceful and environmental protection development,
or the war and development at the expense of damaging the environment.
The swelling desire of humans, the crazy development in armaments and
science and technology, and inequality in human rights, the pollution of the
environment and the energy crisis, etc., pestering the world like plague…
It is undeniable that the technology that we have known is only one of the
methods that people know and use to transform the world rather than the
sole method. However, the concept of technology has penetrated in people’s
mind and each field of life. People’s minds are controlled by modern
technology and their own desire unconsciously… Just as said by Einstein:
“Where do we come from, where is the human heading for?” My paintbrush
gives such a long sigh, trying to arouse the love in humans hearts through
my works and their conscience that is sound asleep, so as to make the globe
where humans and other animals live a peaceful and vital place…
