李吉祥
Lee Chi-Hsiang, born in Nantou, Taiwan in 1983, is a Taipei National University of the Arts Masters Program graduate in 2010. He is fascinated by stained glass windows and believes that they offer a unique perspective, creating visual dynamics that go beyond a two-dimensional image. Using oil paint, Lee captures the eventful contents of stained glass windows in a way that he feels creates a uniquely compelling lens through which to view the world.
1983年生於臺灣南投埔里，2010年畢業於國立臺北藝術大學美術創作研究所。自大學時期開始即以寫實繪畫作為創作主軸，其作品的概念是以窗花玻璃作為攝影鏡頭並在現實中取樣。壓花玻璃在臺灣1960年代時，常被作為住宅中的裝潢，但隨著時代變遷，壓花玻璃逐漸被透明且反光性高的平面玻璃取代，現在多數廠商皆已停止生產，難以覓得。因此其運用自身油畫技巧將窗花透光背後的呈現完整記錄，臨場感十足。作品中物件本身存在的意義因為失焦的觀看，而使得觀者的想像力得以介入，進而得以感受畫面之外的氛圍。藝術家藉由其創作賦予窗花玻璃更多的意涵，展現出時間加上空間的距離感，使觀者在作品前勾起記憶，相遇朦朧的存在與證明。玻璃微微透著光，卻完整體現了失焦的美。
