seeing the scene through the window never seems to ever come the evening of growing dark
seeing the scene through the window never seems to ever come the evening of growing dark

amongst the world of men

a house I found

no noise of carriages

no noise of horses

A question raised :

Incredibly impossible

my dear

heart winged

a distance 

flight

silence

spread

my sight

gathering crysanthemum

where

lies the Eastern fence

the blue hills

are within 

reach

At sunset

purity

of air

breathed

Birds

winged

in pairs

return

home

Truth

is 

attained

just

like that

the further

said

the futher

not

to be

said

 ( translated by BKFLee 2016 of poem in the C4th by Tao Chien )

(Italian text on canvas translated by Yan Po Tak, 1993)

paintings inspired by poems and old poems began in 1982 .

Text on canvas in Italian began in 1993

Text veiled with 1 layer in 1996 ( Italian veiled with Chinese text )

Text veiled with three layers in 2000 ( Italian, German and Chinese text )

Text veiled with six layers in 2002 ( English, French, Objiway, German , Italian and Chinese )

veiling

a mysterious act

to adorn

to see

yet not to see

to tell

yet not to tell

to say

but secret kept

such is

the quality

of veiling

a quality

equates to

poetry

an act

dignified

a layer

not

totally

unfold

these layering kind of act

in different languages

sung

with

forgotten tunes

in color text

reassuming

once again

the musical

quality

of painted

text

evanescent

in

mood

but

what mood

searching
seeking
how chilly
how lonely

how sad
how terribly sad
how painfully sad

seemingly warm
chilly instead
this weather
hard to rest

three cups of
wine so light
two sips of
which
defend
me not

from the wind
so quick
in action

swallows past
touched my heart
were once
bosomed friend

all over
are yellow flowers
to remember

sad
with
frailing
mood
for those
to
collect
flowers
left

seeing the scene
through the window
never
seems
to
ever
come

the
evening
of
growing
dark
