Turning Sculpture

Poetic imagination, the dynamics of light and shadow, and the rhythm of volume

As a professional sculptor, Jason likes to experience the taste of life with perceptual observation in the subtle moments, and also likes the ever-changing situation of game shapes in the poetic imaginary space. For Jason, art creation is to share various moods and stories in daily life.

Self-celebration

The issue that sculpture and ballet face together is "gravity", which is the matter of "support". Due to the different dynamic and static supporting conditions, a unique composition method and shape interest are created. Inspired by modern ballet, Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) allowed modern sculpture to step out of the established framework of the pedestal and gave the shape the freedom to stretch its own will. The subsequent development approaches such as Futurism (1909-1915), Constructivism (1917-1921), and Kinetic Art (1920-) have become one of the spiritual guides for sculpture to explore modern spatial phenomena. Abstract sculpture not only develops the grammar of visual aesthetics in which people use shapes to interpret psychology and emotions, but also gets rid of the passive purpose of replicating nature and reproducing reality, thereby touching the hearts of modern people with more concise and direct appeals. After being baptized by non-traditional raw materials and welding industrial technology, sculpture materials have stronger applicability and freer choices in application. The composition of sculpture no longer needs to rely on visual psychological support or other cognitive aesthetics. Formation becomes a material form of ideas, a spiritual and aesthetic sharing.

"Movement and light drive away the concreteness of objects." - Futurist Manifesto, 1910."Kinetic Rhythms, which will be the basic form by which we experience actual time." - 1920 Realist Manifesto. The energy of the sculpture creator comes from willpower. The more energetic something is, the less it can be formed, produced or understood in terms of form. Only imagination and sensitivity derived from the ontology of life can be permanent, magnificent and infinite.

I appreciate the worldview described by quantum mechanics, and I like to start from a humble belief and explore the original aesthetic interest of things around me. This belief is the energy basis for the creator to shape himself and the world. This is why he is able to realize the possibility of "flowers blooming for me and all things living for me". The ancients said, "The external teacher creates good fortune, and the inner source is the source of the heart." Through the accumulation of aesthetic experience, I believe that people can absorb this universal resonance, either intellectually or perceptually, in a personal way of interpretation under the triggering perception of aesthetic situations. As for the creator's motivation: shape is the material form of an idea. Once an energy or experience with aesthetic value is confirmed, it must be readily shared with others in a concise and refined form.
