About Amore 新表演藝術

《愛茉莉》是一部前衛作品，旨在提升表演藝術、概念藝術、動態藝術、數位藝術、錄像藝術和抽象藝術的藝術性。 Paul Jiang 的畫作採用 3D 動畫，栩栩如生。變幻動人的藝術與其靈魂伴侶音樂交織在一起、互動。雖然以愛為中心，但它也將人類的情感（喜、怒、哀、恐、愛、恨、情）與東方元素（金、木、水、火、土）結合起來，創造出極其多樣化的西方古典音樂表演藝術。一切以達到相互依存的陰陽平衡。

Design Challenge: Creating art is like a pregnancy and birth. It is a long arduous road, but when it bears fruit, you leave a legacy that may inspire future generations. Pairing and synching appealing animations to music and debuting in a live concert adds enormous complexities. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a digital video art blended with dramatic music is beyond words. Amore is a unique performing art that touches the heart.
Research: Plato once said music gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything. Music is timeless, immortal and abstract but invisible. Amore brings my colorful musical imaginations to life. We explored various mediums and styles from the romantics, surreal to contemporary. Paintings are transformed into motion pictures, intertwining and interacting in a marriage with its soul mate, music. Amore morphs into a conceptual, kinetic, digital and video art.
Inspiration: Of all the emotions, the most seductive and touching is Love. Love is my muse and is the most inspirational and greatest charm of all time. Though the focus is Amore, I also hope to elegantly unite all seven human emotions (Joy, Anger, Sorrow, Fear, Love, Hate, Affection) alongside the Five Eastern Elements (Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth) to create a dramatically diverse program of Western Classical music and performing art. All in to achieve a mutual interdependence Yin-Yang balance.
Project Duration: The documented film was edited and exhibited at Art Taipei on Oct 2019. The latest edition was revised on April 2021. The duration of the film is about one hour and twelve minutes.
Operation Flow: Love can be heaven and hell. Amore is a brew of my emotional rollercoaster and cultural up bringing. Music and art purify the body, mind, and soul. It also inspire, triggering the inner voice of creativity. There are connections, imitations, mutations, variations, oppositions and expansions in between the themes, developments, bridges, sections and keys. The emotional and compositional evolutions are combined, reflected and echoed in the artistic animation to enable a harmonious flow.
