+ OVERVIEW

I, Chiu Ya-tsai, did not use my age and experiences to introduce myself, I write about humanity. I utilize my acute subjective attitude to sculpture and create my characters ... I paint people engaging in life and the interplay between ecology and humanity that induces dreams. The elderly and the young employees, middleaged man who are walking and driving, school children; The morning, afternoon and evening. The act of strenuous observation allows one’s imagine to guide oneself towards the destination of sunrise. My innate qualities enable me to be sensitive towards colours, painting makes my eyes shine.

- Chiu Ya-tsai
