Time-Space Children

I alleviate the various stresses life brings by creating unique visual art, a stress-relief therapy of my own invention.

Through the "Time-Space Children" series of paintings, I explore the theme of reversing time-space with the aim of overcoming my fear of illness. I have experienced two serious car accidents, which caused severe physical injuries and psychological trauma. In addition, I have suffered from the unethical behaviors of caregivers, the pain of surgery, and the agonizing pain caused by nasal diseases. All these exacerbated my fear of illness. In order to overcome this negative emotion, I rebuild connections with my childhood self through the "Time-Space Children" series, hoping to regain trust in my body. I depict my childhood self in various backgrounds, using the paintings as a bridge for dialogues with my past self, exploring deep feelings inside. This transcendental communication across time and space allows me to express care for my childhood self, and find a sense of safety and trust in real life. This series is a "therapy" I created to overcome my internal distress, and also a way for me to communicate with my inner emotions. I hope that by sharing these works, I can bring emotional comfort to those with similar experiences.

It is a very good healing image.

When this picture was developed, I felt that it was completely unsuitable. Firstly, the child is sitting on the ground, and the position is very low, which is very oppressive. Secondly, the image of the child is too large. Thirdly, the lines showing energy are too fake, so it wasn't adopted as a healing image.

e-31

The background of this image is an estate in the UK. Although the sense of direction in the energy lines is not strong, which makes me unable to clearly feel whether the energy is gathering on the child or emanating from the child, it hasn't been removed since it's already pasted on the bathroom wall.

This image is an experimental one that I created myself, with a background that's a blend of tree bark and a photo of the U.S. coast. The result is quite dreamy after blending the two images, which somewhat resembles the style of some of my dreams. I wanted to place a child in this environment to see her reaction. However, this image has not yet been developed into a photograph, but it makes for a pretty good desktop wallpaper experience.

e-41

This is an experimental image with a tree bark background. The shapes on both sides are self-created. I wanted to know whether the effect under the dual protection of shapes and flowers is better, but maybe the composition of the shapes isn't that aesthetically pleasing, so I don't like this image.

e-42

The little girl in the picture is the one I most want to save and restore, but whether this image of the little girl truly represents my appearance at that time, I'm not sure. In the original photo, the girl's size is only about 1.5 cm, with the size of the head even smaller at 0.4 cm. Also, due to the age of the photo, it has become a bit blurry. Despite utilizing high-tech means to restore it, I think the restoration level could only reach about seventy or eighty percent at most. In many of the healing works I have done before, I discovered that the smaller and more blurred the little girl, the more I could find a sense of reality. I believe this is mainly because she has become a symbol and a memory. The background of this image is very abstract. I recall that during the period this little girl was living, I despised reality very much. I yearned to escape into an illusory space, a space that was safe and novel. When I finished the background of this painting, I suddenly thought about whether I could bring the little girl into it to see her reaction to this virtual space. But the healing works I create also have to satisfy one condition: they must make me feel that the image is beautiful. Otherwise, I simply cannot accept it. The abstract image on the left of the little girl gives me a sense of mystery, which can satisfy my desire to explore the mysterious healing power, so I put it in the image. In short, when producing these types of pictures, I completely rely on the guidance of my feelings to select materials and decide their placements in the background. This image has just been created and hasn't been developed yet for me to feel the little girl's reactions, but the initial impression seems to be quite good.

The background of this picture is a fusion of two images, one is a park's grassland, the other is the surface of a tree stump corroded by termites, full of holes and bumps. When I first saw this tree stump, I had an indescribable sense of familiarity, which gave me the impulse to place the little boy in it. However, when I actually combined the pictures, I couldn't find the pleasant feeling I was looking for. So I blended it with the image of the grassland. After significantly reducing the clarity of the little boy's picture on intuition, a very wonderful feeling emerged. I didn't know why it happened that way. Now, as I write this background introduction and look at this picture again, I know the answer. It's because when I was very young, there were vast rice fields next to where I lived. When the rice was ripe, many sparrows would fly in to eat the grains. To scare off these sparrows, the farmers would twist a very long grass rope, tie some rag strips on it, and place them on top of the rice fields. The side of the rice field near our house had a significant drop, and that dropped surface looked like the enlarged version of the big hole recessed in the background of this picture. Sometimes farmers would spread some grass in the hole and sit inside. When they saw sparrows coming, they'd shake the grass rope to scare them away. I was often attracted by the farmers' actions and would sneak into the farmers' dugout to watch, often getting myself dirty and enduring my mother's physical punishment when I got home. This is a very distant memory, and for me, such memories are becoming increasingly blurred. They seem to have quietly retreated into my subconscious, leaving only a beautiful feeling behind. After this composite image was created, it gave me the same wonderful feeling I had when I was playing in the dugout. I think the reason I took the termite-damaged picture at that time was due to subconscious drive. The materials placed next to this picture make it look more beautiful and pleasing to my eyes. The reason for significantly reducing the clarity of the little boy's picture is that he is now a distant memory in the subconscious.

e-44

When creating this image, I deliberately significantly reduced the clarity of the little boy, giving him a sense of hiding within the tree roots. This is a tree root with a very clear boundary inside and out, which seems very suitable for the little boy to hide in. It seems to provide a kind of protection for the little boy. The flowers and wild grass on both sides are only there to make the picture look more beautiful. After creating this image, I set it as my desktop background, and the initial feeling is very good.

e-45

When creating this image, I intentionally reduced the clarity of the little boy to about 50%, making him appear blurry, as if he was hiding in this golden stone. I refer to the child in this image as a little boy because he looks like a boy. Furthermore, during the period this boy was alive, I didn't have any gender identity because I was still trying to urinate standing up and was mischievous, acting more like a boy than a girl. This golden stone gives me a very auspicious, energetic, and translucent feeling. I wanted to hide the little boy inside the stone to give him a sense of protection. The healing inspiration for this came from an idea that spontaneously popped into my head after praying one morning. I turned this idea into an image. Because this image has not yet been turned into a physical photo, I do not yet know its healing effects.

e-46

During the period when this little girl was alive, she liked to swing, so I placed her on an image made up of tree roots, creating the sensation of sitting on a swing. The wild grass in the middle is merely there to make the image more beautiful. The rays of light coming down from the sky onto the little girl give a feeling of receiving God's blessings.

e-47

The background of this image was taken in a park. There's a pattern on the left of the stone in the image, making the entire stone seem as if it contains some mysterious power. Therefore, I reduced the clarity of the little boy's image and hid him inside the stone, so he could receive the protection of this mysterious power. The idea of hiding inside objects comes from a scenario from my childhood. Whenever I saw my mother, I would unconsciously hide behind other people because I was afraid of her seeing me. Only when hidden behind others and not seen by my mother did I feel safe. Therefore, hiding might also be a healing method. However, since this image was just completed, I do not yet know the effectiveness of its healing power.

e-48

The background of this image is a fusion of the surface of a rock and the beautiful scenery of a small town in France, forming a surreal space. Beneath the small grove in this surreal space, there is a small patch of open ground that seems to be made of yellow soil, which gives me a very warm feeling. That is the memory of a distant space without physical support. It is a clue and an emotion, and so to me, it is a land of auspiciousness. This is why I put the little boy in this plot.

e-49

The background of this image is tree bark. I really like the scene in this picture. To me, it seems like a space I really like, it's quiet and peaceful. I put myself in the world of these two children, thereby finding their favorite positions in the picture. There was no purpose in creating this image; it was purely a game I played with myself.
