▌展覽介紹 Exhibition Introduction

2015的「浮識  浮世」、2018道禾「人間  娓娓道來」、2020年「唯識人生」以及2021「爐香乍爇  法界蒙薰」之雕塑創作個展，用凡人的立足點揣摸仙佛的無上聖境，用『形色』憶測仙佛之靜與動，然而仙佛捨離『形色』只用『空』字告知一切。

此次以『念頭』做為個展主題，回歸探討對人存在的主要核心架構，『念頭』可以解夬問題和發現問題，它具備『成、住、壞、空』的四種現象，它也包涵每個人過去的意識運作，關鍵影嚮現在念頭的正、負面走向。

『念頭』可以發現問題也能解決問題，佛教用『參』字來面對『念頭』的升起與消失，用第三人的角度看待，必然有第三種的意念出現。因此便可當下發現與解決念頭，讓每一個念頭都能被我們知道。

藉由此次個展，提供每件作品在不同時間產生的念頭，來勾起每位參觀來賓下意識的某一個念頭，透過參念頭的方式來觸動這一次的美感經驗。

Following the solo sculpture exhibitions “Floating Perception, Floating World” (2015), “Mundane Stories” (2018 at Daohe), “The Conscious Life” (2020) and “Fragrance Arising, the Dharma Realm Immersed” (2021), Yeh Chu-Hsiu continues to explore themes of transcendence and spirituality. Previous works attempted to capture the serene and dynamic nature of immortals and Buddhas, using form and color as an interpretive bridge—though these celestial beings ultimately abandon form and color, leaving behind only the concept of emptiness.

This year’s theme, “Mindful Thought”, delves into the fundamental structure of human existence. Thoughts have the power to both identify and resolve issues, embodying the four phenomena of arising, abiding, decaying, and ceasing. They also carry the imprints of past consciousness, influencing the positive or negative directions of present thoughts.

In Buddhism, the act of contemplation addresses the arising and vanishing of thoughts from an objective, third-person perspective. This detachment fosters a new layer of intention, enabling one to both recognize and address thoughts as they arise.

Through this exhibition, Yeh offers a glimpse into the inspirations that shaped each sculpture, inviting visitors to experience their own subconscious thoughts. By contemplating these thoughts, visitors may unlock a deeply personal aesthetic experience.
