The cable wires seen throughout the metropolis executed as Haiku in visual terms inspire “Wired”.
As the poetry in English appear in three lines, I only used beige, black and white to define the image, relying mostly on composition to speak. This collection of works is where east meets west. It also pays tribute to the great abstract expressionist, Franz Kline. But while his works focused less or nothing at all on imagery, mine displays my source of inspiration.
The cable wires existing around us are necessary to our existence but considered very unsightly that advanced countries have hidden them underground. Could this image likewise be obsolete as the world goes wireless someday? My job as an artist is not only to record what is around me but also to find beauty in them. However spontaneous the works may appear, each piece is carefully studied, chosen and intentionally laid out. The process took trips to the streets, sketches and photographs to create the finish product. I truly enjoyed interpreting this everyday object into visual poetry.
