Description
The background of this painting on linen is constituted by vertical, encompassing striped colored in white and ocher (the "ocher" color might as well be the original color of the linen). The organized background is disrupted by spontaneous, darker-toned, brushstrokes (much in the fashion of traditional Chinese calligraphy) traveling between/under the bi-color stripes. "Line Field" series at its initial stage to the artist was an experiment and exploration on the relationships between point, line, surface (2D), and eventually, spacial units (3D). Later on the artist was interest to explore the intersecting spaces (line over line, for example), the alternating representations of the "real" and the "virtual" (perhaps by factures), and what an art writer termed "formal aestheticism".
