RELAY 21-Ceramic 4th Relay

Lin Lung-Chieh

— October 3, 2021 by YIART

The structure and composition of natural objects has always been a sight that fascinates the artist Lin Lung-Chieh. He pays attention to the structure and composition of natural objects and rebirth. He shapes ceramic into organisms that resemble mechanical forms. He uses his own experience as inspiration to transform the subtleties of life into man-made objects.Faced with the intervention and flow of information from the current generation of electronic media, the artist believes that people have long been silently being transformed into an unknown future. To this end, he extracted the plural growth patterns of plants and microorganisms, and partially implanted artificial symbols, hoping to reshape different biological patterns, and shape works such as "Angular Vortex", "Slug", and "Shadow Fin". Reflect on this issue.

The artist has doubts about the boundary between virtual and real existence. He transformed his sense of disordered body into an unknowable appearance. Mixing the mediums that are connected to the body in the current living space, capturing the entangled, flowing, blended and mixed stop form of the two, derives "Forficulids" and "Serialized Organism Ⅰ". The artist creates "Cyan Rock-Stratums" by simply building and joining the soil strips, gradually constructing a form of arbitrary growth, resembling organisms and mechanical objects, seeking an outlet between reality and reality, responding to his own sense of life experience. The "The Sea of Plankton" is a comprehensive overlap of hanging and changing light and shadow, reflecting on the sense of force majeure and psychedelic generated by individuals immersed in the electronic medium of information breeding.
