In my works, I magnify some elements during the working process: the erasure of colour, the relationship between positive and negative spaces, and the space inside and outside the canvas.
Normally, I use ‘ white’ as a force to expand unlimited space or as an emptiness to fill all the colours by imagination. Also ‘ white’ could refer to the white of exhibition space, gesso and the normal canvas. Because of this, it opens far more possibilities to transfer the undefined space inside and outside of my paintings.
For the other colours and stripes, they serve as multiple roles within complicatedly interactive layers and transition between positive/ negative spaces. They are the main body that constructs the base for the whole picture, while they are too supporting roles that step by step build up the existence of negative space.
