About the work :

Refuge is a painting by Taïwanese artist Chen Yiching. 

In this painting, the artist has depicted a tree appearing through a cloud of mist. Chen Yiching’s chosen view is in close to the tree, allowing us to see details in the trunk and the pine needles of the conifer. The title ‘Refuge’ can give a feeling of security being near to this tree in the forest.

Chen Yiching is an expert of «nihon-ga», a form of traditional Japanese (nihon)painting (ga). This very demanding technique consists of using only the most natural of materials (wood, paper, rock, sand, bone) to create the artwork. The pigments, obtained thanks to minerals such as azurite or malachite, are mixed with glue (nikawa) made from the skin and bones of fish or other animals. The paper is glued to wood or stretched silk (marouflage technique). The principle is like that of water-colour and the notion of space is created thanks to (yohaku) empty spaces.

The artist gets all of her inspiration from nature. Her paintings (floral compositions, cross-sections of forests, some animals) are proof of this. She expresses her sensibility by use of a harmonious language which is both controlled and delicate.
