Taipei based artist Liu, Hsin-Cheng has always been fascinated by simple forms and
colour stirred by their visual complicity. He spent a year in Central Saint
Martin of Art & Design College in London to explore the relationship between
sound and graphic, intending to create a systematic visual communication
triggered by simply talking. As for his first exhibition in China, Liu, Hsin-Cheng
takes his sensibility into a journey with basic shapes. The way he deals
with dimension, form, proportion presents his understanding of global
graphic culture, which reveals a romantic side of the visual nature of
geometry.

While artist Jason Cool pays more attention on the metaphor within the
context of geometry. He often uses objects and materials exist in our
everyday life to create modular system-like installation. By looking into
basic concept of dimension, Jason exams the class of different shapes and
makes implications of social hierarchy of our life. It becomes more
meaningful when found object been introduced into his practice, as the
connection between commodity culture and economy class. Apparently he puts
effort on achieving the geometric order at mathematical level, but the
actual work is in the result of a kind of failed structure. It creates the
conflict of salability and riot and leaves the feeling of uncanny elegancy.

Perhaps the title of ‘Flatland’ recalls back the intellectual story of
geometry, in another hand, it lead us proudly representing two talented
artists at FakeSpace, where we constantly bring up the fresh art and
interesting stuff for people here in Beijing.

臺北藝術家劉心正長期癡迷于幾何形體和顏色序列的復雜性。他曾經在倫敦中央
圣馬丁設計與藝術學院研修圖形與聲音的關系，并致力于開發交談所誘發的交互式圖形視
覺系統。作為他第一個在中國的展覽，劉心正把自己的感知度帶入到基本形體的世界，對
于形體，維度，比例的獨特掌控，是深植了他對與圖形文化的理解之中的。他的創作為我們
展現出幾何視覺世界的浪漫特質。

而藝術家張磊（Jason Cool）似乎更關注形體關系所引發的社會隱喻。通過重新考查維度的概
念，來看待它所造就的結構之間的界限，平面的三角形永遠無法理解立體的多面體結構。
現成品在他的作品中帶來至關重要的解讀，讓這些單純的形體與顏色與消費文化相關聯，
從而讓人們想到現實生活里所面臨的經濟層級關系。他常常利用日常生活的現成物品來
創作類似單體延續系列的裝置。表面上看，他在努力建構某種數學化的次序，但作品結果
卻呈現出一種穩定和混亂的矛盾，一種失敗的結構體，

希望這個展覽不只是讓人聯想到幾何世界的次序美感，我們在向基本形體的致敬的同時來
展出兩位年輕有為的藝術家的作品，讓FakeSpace為大家提供新鮮的藝術和有趣的東西。
