林義隆
Lin Yi-Lung is inspired by the things that happen in the spatial dimension around him. He crushes and filters these image fragments in his memory and the sensory information he receives. Gradually, they evolve into the individuals and spaces that thrive in his works. These individuals exude perceptual fragments of memory and live in the mandala that belongs to them. The objects in his works already exist in a particular corner of this cyclical world, and we may never meet them.
林義隆的創作是透過觀察日常周遭所處的空間維度內發生的各種事物。它們來自於人造的,或者是自然的;是流動的,或者是感性的。它們可能難以捕捉或是歸類,我卻深深為它們的存在而著迷。
林義隆將這些記憶中的影像片斷與接收到的感官訊息,壓碎過濾後成為我的創作養分,再藉由時間發酵,生長成作品中各種樣貌的個體及它們所處的空間。而作品中的個體並不是將我們所知的生物體再現,而是來自事物的觀察與想像編織重塑完成的新個體與空間。這些個體投射記憶中的感性片斷,在屬於它們的曼荼羅內日復一日的活著。作品中的它們對於我來說,本來就存在這個循環世界的某一個角落,只是我們還沒遇見,或者是永遠不會遇見而已
