"Destined” - 傅作新、盧爾德·納瓦羅
「當一個人尋求利用大自然赋予他的天賦來實現自己時,他就會做他能做的最高且唯一有意義的事情。」 ————赫曼·赫塞《水仙與戈德蒙》,1927-1929
在人生的旅程中,每個人對風景的解讀都受到內心境界的影響。藝術家透過風景畫,揭示了他們的內在情感和人生思 索。C Square Gallery 很榮幸將於10月12日至12月22日展出展覽"Destined”,展出傳作新(b.1971,台灣)與 盧爾德·納瓦羅(Lourdes Navarro, b.1984, Colombia)風景創作,探討個人與自然之間的聯繫。兩位藝術家的作 品展現了他們對風景畫不同的詮釋,並與觀者帶入一同體驗心靈與自然的共鳴。
風景畫自文藝復興時期起逐漸興盛,最早的風景畫重點在於重現自然,強調寫實的風光。隨著藝術史的演變,風景不 再僅僅是客觀的再現,而成為藝術家主觀內心世界的反映。19世紀浪漫主義的興起,讓風景畫充滿了詩意的沉思, 表達了個人情感與自然的交融。而到了20世紀,現代主義的風潮又使風景畫更具抽象性,透過形狀、色彩和構圖傳
遞更深的哲思。
傅作新和盧爾德,納瓦羅正是在悠長風景畫歷史中,發展出自己對風景畫的詮釋。他們的作品既承載了風景畫的傳 統,也進一步探索了自然與人心的共鳴。傅作新的創作背景深深扎根於他與森林的深刻聯結。多年來在外求學、遊歷 歐洲與日本的經驗,使他感受到文化與內心的疏離。向外探索的旅程,讓他感到迷惘與疲憊。直到他在那須市的烏鴉 森林中,才重新找回內在的平靜與歸屬感,這段經歷深刻影響了他的作品。
傳作新於1993年至1996年間遊學歐洲,隨後於2003至2005年間在法國專研銅版版畫與油畫,並獲得多次國際 獎項的肯定。他的作品收藏於台灣、法國、義大利、比利時等多國美術館。傅作新透過油畫和銅版畫,以沉靜的筆觸 描繪出深邃而靜謐的森林景象。他的畫作如同一扇門,帶領觀者走進他內在的精神世界,讓人感受到自然的靈性與永 恆的生命。
盧爾德、納瓦羅,則以一種截然不同的方式詮釋風景的意象。這位出生於哥倫比亞的女性藝術家,早年學習藝術, 並決定放棄穩定的工作,完全投入藝術創作。「我感覺時間在流逝,我必須全心全意地成為一名藝術家。」她將藝術 視為一種迫切的內在呼喚,並勇敢地投身其中。她的作品充滿了色彩與能量,透過鮮明的對比與流動的筆觸,捕捉瞬 息萬變的自然景觀。
納瓦羅的創作風格受到拉丁美洲豐富多樣的自然景觀與民族文化影響。她筆下的風景並非靜止的,而是充滿動感,反 映出她對生命的激情和自然的敬畏。在她的作品中,風景不僅僅是外在的視覺呈現,更是一種內心的象徵,描繪了她 內心的自由與追求。
“Destined”暗示著人生旅程的方向與終點,而藝術家必然將創作視為這一輩子要角。傅作新和盧爾德,納瓦羅雖來 自不同的文化背景,但他們的作品都傳遞了對於自然與人生的深刻思考。傅作新的畫作呈現出一種寧靜而孤獨的美, 象徵著他內心的沉澱與反思;而納瓦羅的作品則充滿了生命的活力與能量,傳遞她對自然與自我實現的追求。深沈與 活潑、沈靜與繽紛這兩種截然不同的繪畫表現,邀請觀者從不同的角度重新審視大自然與人類的意義。
在傳作新與盧爾德,納瓦羅的作品中,我們跳脫第一視角,以第三者的角度反思自己的生命旅程。在仔細觀看中, 風景不再是靜止的,而是充滿了內在的詮釋與可能性,寄託了我們對自然的崇敬與情緒的感知。正如赫塞所言,當人 們接受自然賜予的天賦時,所達成的會是最真誠且最美的成就,這個成就將會感動無數。

"Destined" - Fu Tso-Hsin, Lourdes Navarro
"Indem ein Mensch mit den ihm von Natur gegebenen Gaben sich zu verwirklichen sucht, tut er das Höchste und einzig Sinnvolle, was er tun kann."
-Hermann Hesse, "Narziß und Goldmund", 1927-1929
On the journey of life, each person's interpretation of a landscape is influenced by their inner state of mind. Through landscape painting, artists reveal their inner emotions and reflections on life. C Square Gallery is honored to present "Destined", an exhibition featuring the landscape works of Fu Tso-Hsin (b.1971, Taiwan) and Lourdes Navarro (b.1984, Colombia), from October 12 to December 22. Their works explore the connection between individuals and nature, offering unique interpretations of landscapes that resonate deeply with viewers, inviting them to experience the harmony between the soul and the natural world.
Landscape painting flourished during the Renaissance, with early works focusing on the realistic depiction of nature. However, as art history evolved, landscapes became more than objective representations; they reflected the artist's subjective inner world. The rise of Romanticism in the 19th century filled landscapes with poetic contemplation, expressing the fusion of personal emotions with nature. By the 20th century, Modernism brought abstraction into landscape painting, using shapes, colors, and compositions to convey deeper philosophical ideas.
Fu Tso-Hsin and Lourdes Navarro have developed their interpretations of landscape painting within a rich historical tradition. Their works carry forward the heritage of landscape art and delve deeper into the resonance between nature and the human soul. Fu Tso-Hsin's creative background is deeply rooted in his profound connection to forests. His years of study and travel in Europe and Japan left him feeling a cultural and internal disconnection. His journey of outward exploration led to feelings of confusion and exhaustion. It was only when he encountered a crow forest in Nasu City, Japan, that he rediscovered his inner peace and sense of belonging, an experience that profoundly influenced his work.
From 1993 to 1996, Fu Tso-Hsin studied in Europe. From 2003 to 2005, he specialized in copperplate and oil painting in France and received multiple international awards. His works are collected in museums in Taiwan, France, Italy, Belgium, and beyond. Through oil painting and copperplate, Fu Tso-Hsin uses serene brushstrokes to depict deep, tranquil forest scenes. His paintings act as a portal, guiding viewers into his inner spiritual world, allowing them to feel the spirituality of nature and the eternal essence of life.
Lourdes Navarro has an exceptional approach to interpreting landscapes. As a Colombian-born artist, she boldly abandoned a stable career to fully dedicate herself to her art, viewing it as an urgent inner calling. Her works are vibrant and energetic, capturing ever-changing landscapes with bold contrasts and fluid brushstrokes.
Navarro's artistic style is influenced by the rich, diverse landscapes and cultural heritage of Latin America. The landscapes in her work are not static but filled with motion, reflecting her passion for life and her reverence for nature. In her paintings, landscapes are not just visual representations of the external world but symbols of inner freedom and aspiration, portraying her quest for self-realization.
"Destined" suggests that every life journey has its direction and endpoint, and for artists, creation is inevitably a central mission of life. Though Fu Tso-Hsin and Lourdes Navarro come from different cultural backgrounds, their works both convey profound reflections on nature and life. Fu Tso-Hsin's paintings present a beauty of tranquility and solitude, symbolizing his inner contemplation and reflection. Navarro's works, by contrast, are brimming with life and energy, expressing her pursuit of nature and self-actualization. The juxtaposition of deep calmness and
lively expression invites viewers to re-examine the meaning of nature and humanity from different perspectives.
Through the works of Fu Tso-Hsin and Lourdes Navarro, we are led to step outside of our first-person viewpoint and reflect on our life journey from a third-person perspective. Upon closer observation, landscapes are no longer static; they become filled with inner interpretation and possibility, embodying our reverence for nature and emotional perception. As Hesse once said, when people embrace the gifts nature bestows, the achievements they reach will be the most sincere and beautiful, capable of touching countless hearts.
