I want to have a free life. I wish all mankind can be free and easy and peaceful; since I don¹t have the power to change the world because I¹m only ONE INDIVIDUAL. I would like to spread out the freedom message and thinking to others by my paintings. Therefore, I create no limit canvas; it is weird abstract shape canvas with no traditional squared boundary and rules. Basically, it is paintings to free the minds/depression/lost. In this modern era, everything is so modern yet people are suffering from depression a lot.
I myself have suffered from depression since when I was a kid. I suffer more than most other kids; I have different stages that went up and down from wealth to poor, from pride to lost. I cannot find myself any more in my own little world. Thus, I had only way to go, turn to my art world. I like to
paint by hand because it is the direct touch from my hand and from my mind. It is faster for me to work and who ever saw the artworks will feel my finger markers. My finger prints are most unique because no one has the same ones, so each paintings would be symbolized my own unique individuality.
Different paintings represent different mood and phase. It is not predictable because it is I don¹t know when my mood will change, I don¹t know if the next minute I will be happy or sad. I can be happy and produce a sunny painting in one day, the next day, I would be totally depress and produce a miserable painting. The first series of framestract (series name here) is done in less than a week, all different paintings is made under different mood. When I was influence by inspiration, I will work very fast it is like at the end of the day, others try to write down what they feel on their diary. My painting is my secret diary but I¹m showing it to everybody. I wanted everyone to know how I feel and how I struggle and I hope whoever has the same issue will feel comfort and relief after they saw my painting. When I¹m ready to work, I cannot be disturbed or else my mind will flow somewhere else. My mind has to stick on where my mood stays, either happy, sad, depress, or doubt.
Many phrases in my life that I feel that I want to give up and I can¹t because I know if I give up at that moment, I will not achieve anything any more in my life ever. Rather spending the time on giving up or depress all day or complain about it, I have to stand up, wipe off my tears and think a best solution to move on. Times like that is very struggle and painful, I have no
one to talk to, neither to my friends nor my family because most of the time, they were my problems. They had their own problems too so there is no one who can help me but myself.
