Chen Hongbo: In my work, I tr y to create a sense of distance. A sense of distance gives us time and space to think and percei ve, and a place to pour out our feelings. Distance does not mean isolation, but is rather a state that comes into existence after the filtration of time and space. The images I create are presented in a hierarchical way, through a painting technique intending to show the process or state of memor y. My recent works are presented in a three-layer acrylic way, with the middle layer as the main body of memory, the bot tom layer as the environment of objects, and the top layer as the atmosphere and mood,shrouding the objects and their environment beneath the fog of memory.
