Land Flavor: Hsieh Chi-Chang Abstract Creation Exhibition
The concept and work-foundation of “Land Flavor” was formed by Hsieh Chi-Chang as a recap after his previous artwork series “Natural Overture” and “Travel Trace”.
By going through all the working experience and process repeatedly with the personal life experience which he had been through, he was able to unleash a true side of his feeling toward the nature and reevaluate the gap between him and the environment as a human being but not as an environmentalist.
The ideas of his art work are based on freedom and self-intuition. In every artwork of him, a pure focus and simplicity were expressed by interaction between the nature and harmony to wake every hidden part of how the humanity might have based on what they saw at their surroundings. The mix between Calligraphy and graffiti were combined and used as one on the paintings is to demonstrate the balance and connection between Eastern and Western art, and also to show the ideal “inner map” for everyone based on the way they look at the nature.
There are couple thing which the audience could discover from the exhibition. For instance, the writing and symbol that based on random graffiti and calligraphy etc. They stood out as the trace and inner memory that humanity and the nature ever shared. Each brash stroke shows the multiple combinations between how human life is intertwined with what they have experienced through natural and how and what they seek to perfect their work for the nature or environment. In other word, it is like viewing an ambiguous vibe from everything that has been existing for a long time to “How” they are perfected to be a better piece of art work.
Sin Titulo- Hsieh Chi-Chang Solo Exhibition
“Sin Titulo: Hsieh Chi-Chang Solo Exhibition” is the display of a series of works inspired by my living aesthetic abroad and life experiences after returning to Taiwan. As the creative process unfolds, simple scribbles and graffiti transform into energies of abstract plastic arts, attempting to construct realistic space and document memories using symbols, abstract calligraphy, and incidents of everyday life.
In general, western philosophy tends to stress the discussion of concepts and the analysis of language, viewing philosophy as pure speculation and discourse. Chinese philosophy, however, focuses on personal experiences and the cultivation of body and mind, interpreting philosophy as a way of life. In other words, Chinese art emphasizes metaphysical beauty, while western art is a series of pursuits aimed at changes in form. Noting this difference, I have combined the concepts and expressions of Chinese and western art in my works. Professor Liu Feng-Jung reviewed my works in his article as: “a unique annotation of form and color that conveys the artist’s accomplishments in ink and wash paintings, western aesthetics, abstract paintings, and the artist’s training and education in Spain. Hsieh applies the western concepts of instinct, emblems, symbols and forms, imaginations and psychoanalysis, and Kant’s theory of play, while also stressing the arrangement of illusion and reality, black and white, or the configuration of the subject and background, movement of brushstrokes, and the flow of curved lines. Geometric boats, buildings that symbol the home space, or floating shapes that are both semi- and non-figurative are seen within the abstract works of the artist, giving the viewers a sensation as if merging into the vast and void world of ink and wash paintings…”
This exhibition presents the “Travel and Architecture Series,” “Calligraphy and Nature Series,” and “Abstract: Sleep Diary Series.” These works were completed between 2013 and 2016. Some were finished after on and off work; some works took months to complete, while others took up to one year. After going through construction, destruction, and reconstruction, the memories of the manuscript undergo recollection and free coverings. Ultimately, the artist’s subconscious usually becomes the source of inspiration. This drawing pattern born through intuition and playful expression results in mixed lines and symbols that hint to time and space, intertwining and forming into “quasi-maps.”
Diaries and unconscious graffiti drafts remind the artist of past events. Without planning and arrangements in advance, everything gradually comes to form along with the creation process. From the moment the paintbrush touches the surface, the small portion gradually extends into shape, slowly growing at will in space. With calligraphic graffiti and shapes that form occasionally and automatically, I pay attention to the nuances throughout the creative process, hoping that the final work will be able to present the painting process, just like the scene of an ongoing march.
With silhouettes of boats, houses, and ladders that resemble the shape and form of written characters, I attempt to create an atmosphere that involves symbolic elements. These are symbols of memories and emotions, also documentations of emotional traces. The black silhouette designs, calligraphic graffiti, mechanic lines, and contrasting colors, scatter randomly on the image as if a moving map. The spilling of oil-based liquids creates an ambiguous dialogue with space. This mystical atmosphere quietly motions and continuously extends through the density, size, and color of lines, continually stretching and covered with mingled images and lines, naturally displaying the motives of the artist. The strong emotions carve deep into the works, growing and spreading, giving missions to the symbols of the scene.

Free/Responsible-Chi-Chang, Hsieh's Artworks Exhibition
Text by Cheng-zhu Weng
Free/Responsible-Free/Responsible—Chi-Chang, Hsieh's Artworks Exhibition is about a representation of the artist’s spirit and soul.
Introduced by Gilles Deleuze (1925-1995), postmodern French artist and thinker, the concept of the fold is about the unceasing changes of life that is akin to countless folds on a piece of fabric; and the existence of life seeks similarities among all variations, like the connection between the artist and his work. The exhibition Free/Responsible will guide its audience into the core theme of the artist’s creation–which is his representation of mind and soul. Life with unceasing changes is like repeated layering paint, for in a creator’s perspective, the artist’s life journey corresponds to the creative process of his work. Thus the works are presented to the viewers according to the artist’s transformation of life. To an artist, one of the fundamental issues about creation is about perspective on the past while seeking and making a difference. To viewers, the choice application of multiple media in the works ushers in a deeper sense of meditation on life, rather than just a discussion of the variations in media. Take the distinction between on paper and on canvas for example: paper easily absorbs the paint although it doesn’t support repeated layers on paint, and canvas is the opposite. The difference between these two kinds of medium can also alter the pace in a creative process, constructing some comparable development to life in different seasons and environments.
Viewers may recognize the signs of transformation of human life, marked by the time and the space, from the paintings in this exhibition. The unique symbolic trademark of the artist’s creative style may evoke the unintentional drawings in our daily experiences and recollections of life. On the other hand, human life experience has in fact tinted the life of painting, the flow of paint on each painting implies the artist’s body movement as well as unpreventable gravity, just like the spirit of freedom in the artist. Hence an artist can demonstrate the rhythm of life via his creative deeds, and so lead us to meditate: on the connection between life and art, also on how time and space may induce art and life of a man. Like the exhibition of Free/Responsible at two art sites, inviting an audience to come and thus experience appreciation and contemplation in a heterotopia.
Land Flavor: Hsieh Chi-Chang Abstract Creation Exhibition
-Engranaje del sentimiento y de la energía.-
El pintor/la naturaleza y el paisaje/Las miradas, las acciones, la reflexión.
RICARDO JUAN BALLESTER
No hace mucho tiempo, el marido de una amiga fallecía de manera temprana e inesperada. Fue un duro golpe, pues sabemos que cuando eres mayor, la desaparición por muerte de cualquier persona con menos edad, nos parece siempre temprana. Cuando hace unos años construían su casa, para su jardín Lola i yo, les regalamos un árbol conocido como cedro del Himalaya.
El día que enterraba a su marido, nos contó que siempre nombraban al árbol como el de Lola y Ricard. El árbol había perdido su nombre y su identidad era sustituida por la de los donantes.
Recuerdo algunos de los paisajes por donde he paseado, algunos de los que he mirado con emoción, los que he fotografiado, los que he pintado. Casi todos tienen en común los árboles anónimos, sin dueño, arbustos, piedras, rocas, tierras aguas y matorrales, no pertenecen a nadie, existen y forman parte de la memoria de los que los han mirado, admirado, sorprendido, emocionado, porque todas estas emociones son capaces de provocar en los espectadores.
Hay diferentes modos de relación con el paisaje, existen los observadores directos, para ellos el disfrute y goce, está en el momento, toda la energía y placer concentrados en ese instante. Existen también los que capturan con fotografías el paisaje para poseerlo, llevarlo a casa e integrarlo en la colección de imágenes, en la maleta personal de nuestros paisajes flotantes y fluyentes en el recuerdo y memoria. Finalmente encontramos a los transformadores del paisaje, los pintores, que de manera personal aportan su visión del paisaje y la naturaleza.
Chi Chang pinta el paisaje utilizando los espejos que guarda en su caja interna, caja alojada en su cerebro y en su corazón, estos espejos capturan el paisaje que observa y a la vez, proyecta y reflejan su paisaje interior sobre el paisaje que está pintando. Después todo vuelve al lienzo con la inmensa fuerza del color, con gestos y pinceladas de energía desbordante, que nos muestra en estas obras de la exposición.
En el paisaje interior del maestro chi chang no hay árboles, ni matorrales, ni piedras etc., los elementos de la naturaleza están trasformados, modificados y vuelven a nacer. La energía que les rodea, es captada por su transformador, que la aprisiona, la reforma y posteriormente desprende y proyecta, en una representación insinuante que invita a recorridos por el interior de la narración que nos ofrece. La narración del maestro siempre se nos presenta explosiva, por su fuerza, por su energético trazado, vital, nervioso, inquieto y rebelde, y a la vez hay un relato implosivo, de introspección y concentración, que vamos descubriendo a través de sutiles señales que invitan discretamente a transitar por los recorridos más secretos.
Chi Chang, observó con los cinco sentidos, detenida y activamente, con humildad y con inteligencia, escuchó las narraciones visuales del pasado y del presente.
Chi Chang, saboreó el aroma de los mundos por donde circuló, el camino para la captación y para el dominio de la sabiduría.
Chi Chang, ha sabido escuchar a sus maestros, y sus maestros han sido siempre todo lo que le rodea y de ello, ha sabido sacar siempre la parte más positiva por pequeña que fuera.

-Engranaje del sentimiento y de la energía.-
El pintor/la naturaleza y el paisaje/Las miradas, las acciones, la reflexión.
RICARDO JUAN BALLESTER
No hace mucho tiempo, el marido de una amiga fallecía de manera temprana e inesperada. Fue un duro golpe, pues sabemos que cuando eres mayor, la desaparición por muerte de cualquier persona con menos edad, nos parece siempre temprana. Cuando hace unos años construían su casa, para su jardín Lola i yo, les regalamos un árbol conocido como cedro del Himalaya.
El día que enterraba a su marido, nos contó que siempre nombraban al árbol como el de Lola y Ricard. El árbol había perdido su nombre y su identidad era sustituida por la de los donantes.
Recuerdo algunos de los paisajes por donde he paseado, algunos de los que he mirado con emoción, los que he fotografiado, los que he pintado. Casi todos tienen en común los árboles anónimos, sin dueño, arbustos, piedras, rocas, tierras aguas y matorrales, no pertenecen a nadie, existen y forman parte de la memoria de los que los han mirado, admirado, sorprendido, emocionado, porque todas estas emociones son capaces de provocar en los espectadores.
Hay diferentes modos de relación con el paisaje, existen los observadores directos, para ellos el disfrute y goce, está en el momento, toda la energía y placer concentrados en ese instante. Existen también los que capturan con fotografías el paisaje para poseerlo, llevarlo a casa e integrarlo en la colección de imágenes, en la maleta personal de nuestros paisajes flotantes y fluyentes en el recuerdo y memoria. Finalmente encontramos a los transformadores del paisaje, los pintores, que de manera personal aportan su visión del paisaje y la naturaleza.
Chi Chang pinta el paisaje utilizando los espejos que guarda en su caja interna, caja alojada en su cerebro y en su corazón, estos espejos capturan el paisaje que observa y a la vez, proyecta y reflejan su paisaje interior sobre el paisaje que está pintando. Después todo vuelve al lienzo con la inmensa fuerza del color, con gestos y pinceladas de energía desbordante, que nos muestra en estas obras de la exposición.
