AFTER CIVILIZED
70x100cm
Between movement and stillness, do we move forward or backward, or stay still. When we pursue democracy, our hearts face the bright side. After civilized, before wars. Combining the word “HUMAN,” from “HUMAN RIGHTS,” with the continuous mountains to symbolize the long and harsh route of pursuing civilization and democracy. The designer uses the words as a metaphor of civilization. People created words, so do civilizations. Among the image compositions, the designer uses the Chinese traditional eight writing strokes of “永(yǒng),” which are the basic brush-writing skills, and dissemble the strokes in a new way; it becomes a hurtful thorn. The new style symbolizes the society, constructed by humankind, is a knife that cuts both bread and finger: the glamour beneath the rules seems to move forward, but it is actually going backward. Finally, it moves; it stops; it stays; it fights till the last breath; it is an endless sorrow. The artist uses this concept to create “After Civilized,” because it is where human right problems come from.

文明之後,
70x100cm, 2014
將 HUMAN-RIGHTS 的 HUMAN 與崎嶇的山路結合,象徵追求民主過程中的艱辛,
同時也將文字的出現,做為象徵文明的開始。因此在畫面上可見,將文字基本構成-永字八法,重新拆解為一根根可傷人的荊棘(刺),象徵著在人類辛辛苦苦所建構出來的世界裡,水可載舟亦可覆舟。
