Chien-Yu Sun: Graduation Exhibition
The Silence of the Void represents the work produced as a consequence of the research for my doctoral thesis between 2001 and 2003 in Australia and Taiwan. The aim of my creative work is to explore an imagery of the inner self and search for the possibility of combining traditional aesthetics and modern technology. In this exhibition, the works include printmaking, digital prints, film and animation.
My creative work introduces an artform of abstract sublimation. Its characteristics of simplicity and tranquillity convey understanding gained from nature and cultural awareness. The void in my work is used to enhance the importance of introspection, combined with modern technology. Through the process of meditating in the medium of the computer, the artforms evoked by the void have produced a new visual language that presents an intuitive and spontaneous inner imagery. This work articulates a tranquil and harmonious aesthetic, related to a long visual tradition that has emerged as a consequence of the purification of mind.
