Public Art 071:Pier-2 Wall Painting Project: Surfing Chinese Zodiac
Surfing Chinese Zodia features blue sea waves and assorted animals, and is part of the Pier-2 Wall Painting Project, is portrayed on the wall of a private residence next to the Dayi Lightrail station. For this piece, ZISHI, an artist who is active in art and design, combines his specialty in classical cultural elements with contemporary illustration to depict the 12 animals of the Chinese zodiac surfing on the wall. The whimsical image shows ZISHI’s interpretation of cultural elements that unite Chinese and Western cultures as well as classical and modern elements.
在駁二大義輕軌站旁的民宅,一面繪有整牆藍色海浪與各種動物圖案的牆面塗鴉,同樣是駁二「宅壁畫」計畫的創作之一。
以「十二生肖衝浪」為主題,活躍於藝術及設計領域的創作者ZISHI用他擅長的古典文化元素,融合當代插畫圖像設計,在駁二大義輕軌站旁的民宅牆面上繪出於波濤浪潮中率性衝浪的十二生肖們。詼諧幽默的形象中蘊含著創作者對文化內涵的轉化,整體風格呈現出一股雜揉了中西文化、古典與現代元素的混血趣味。
在ZISHI的彩繪壁畫前,想像自己加入十二生肖行列,一同悠遊衝浪,身體不自覺擺出衝浪姿勢,即便是自得其樂也未必不可喔!
