Description

My artistic and conceptual project represents a fusion of pictorial tradition, Buddhist spirituality, and digital innovation. Here is an in-depth summary developing each dimension: 1. Philosophical Foundations: The Three Paths of Mahayana - Vision (Darśana-mārga): Symbolized by the chromatic reinterpretation (particularly the dominant yellow of xanthopsia), evoking altered perception as a metaphor for spiritual awareness. - Meditation (Bhāvanā-mārga): Materialized by manually cut-out layers, embodying the patience and contemplative effort necessary for transcendence. - Arhat Path (Aśaikṣa-mārga): Represented in the triptych as a culmination, where minimalist digital animation suggests dynamic and fluid awakening. - Minimalist Animation: - Through subtle frame-by-frame interpolations, I convey Buddhist impermanence (anicca) and the fluidity of awakened consciousness. 2. Dialogue with Van Gogh: Duality and Xanthopsia - Reinterpretation of Duality: - The original chromatic tensions (violent complements in Van Gogh) become yellow-orange harmonies for you, evoking the "utopian vision" in the darkness. - The sunflowers or irises of "Flower Garden" are transfigured into symbols of the "three kingdoms" (animals, hungry spirits, hell), now pacified by the path of arhatship. - Xanthopsia as Metaphor: - This sensory alteration becomes an allegory of enlightened perception: seeing spiritual light at the heart of existential suffering. 3. Contemporary Dimension: Art in the Digital Age - Subrealism: My style fuses expressionist abstraction (painterly gestures) with a stripped-down digital aesthetic, creating a liminal space between the real and the virtual—a reflection of Buddhist "realms of existence." - Interactive Contemplation: Animation invites active meditation, where the viewer participates in the dissolution of boundaries (physical/digital, suffering/awakening), actualizing the Buddhist principle of interdependence (pratītyasamutpāda). Conclusion: Transcendence through Hybridity My work embodies a 21st-century visual theology: by blending Buddhist spirituality with digital language, I hope to demonstrate that art remains a vehicle for universal awakening. The reinvention of Van Gogh is not a passive homage, but an active dialectic: his quest for light in darkness finds a fractal echo in my exploration of the "Three Paths." Mixed media thus becomes a media ritual, where manual gesture (clipping) and algorithm (animation) conspire to reveal the eternal in the ephemeral – the very essence of Nirvana.
