前言 Introduction:

吴啸海是一个摒弃传统和知识的冒险家,他的作品总能让人们瞥见神圣的光晕,本次展览不仅仅是一次视觉的洗礼,在艺术家构建的感性经验和身临其境的绘画中,如在空旷的剧场之中的演绎,始终回旋着一种既原始又充满神性的声音,带领我们进入艺术家潜意识的途径。本次展览以“神话”入题,瓦格纳认为,神话不仅仅是故事,而是一个民族最深刻的价值观、恐惧和抱负的体现,它们提供了一种超越个别文化和历史时期限制的通用语言。在这种语境下,吴啸海的艺术成为神话的容器,他多元且纷繁的艺术世界成为了向我们传达深刻真理和唤起集体记忆的手段,是看似矛盾的两个对立面最终殊途同归,万物归一。

 

Wu Xiaohai is an adventurer who eschews tradition and knowledge, his works consistently offering glimpses of divine auras. This exhibition is not merely a visual baptism, rather, it is a journey through the artist's sensuous experiences and immersive paintings, akin to a performance within an expanse of an empty theater, where an echoing, primal, and divine voice lingers, guiding us into the pathways of the artist's subconscious. With "Mythology" as its theme, the exhibition draws upon Wagner's perspective that myths are not merely stories but rather embodiments of a nation's most profound values, fears, and aspirations, providing a universal language that transcends individual cultures and historical epochs.

In this context, Wu Xiaohai's art becomes a vessel for mythology, his diverse and intricate artistic world serving as a means to convey profound truths and evoke collective memories. It is a harmonious convergence of two seemingly contradictory opposites, ultimately leading to a unified whole where all things find their place.
