The Non-Stop Game

The paintings in this collection were all completed between 2005 - 2007. The time passed by before I realized it. During this time I did the most memorable thing for myself. I chronicled parts of my life through my paintings. About three to four years ago, I used to think of myself as a *blind fly, flying wherever I wanted to go, and crashing into a variety of colours. Two or three months ago, I saw myself as a black sheep among a herd of white sheep. Dipped in black dye, I was unique and beautiful, and liked running into those silly white sheep, turning their fleece into shades of grey. A day or two ago, a friend said I was actually more like a pig - lazy and hungry, reaping awards without effort, chubby, just waiting to see when I would be sent to the butchers… Well, whether I am a pig, sheep, or blind fly, there is another me inside– one filled with hope. Since Lam Tsuen forbade people to throw offerings up the wishing tree, I have been accustomed to drawing my hopes onto wooden boards.
