像死去一样幸福
——2014史历作品自述

许多年来，我一直在钻研东、西方的音乐、诗歌及绘画的现状，以便能找到一条自己的道路。就像一个虔诚的“持戒修行者”，所持有的内心状态是对绘画的终极追问和对色彩的更深入的探索。去掉私心杂念，回到内心深处、回到一种原始状态。和每天的打坐修行一样，安静里有蠢蠢欲动之喜。我们如果能去掉社会的芜杂，就会感到自然的呼吸、感到生命的美好、感到真正的幸福。就和去掉绘画里具体的形象一样。（具体形象反而会影响人们对事物本质的认识。）因此，我从具象逐渐转为抽象。

绘画就像是在泥土里种下一粒种子，然后浇水、在阳光雨露里，慢慢地长大。过程很好玩，有许多意想不到喜悦。就像钻研到色彩和人类触觉的极致，产生新的感受。反复追求理想中的效果，是对色彩的更高分辨，对美的迷恋、对美的更深更高追求，对生活的更多感悟。思想里有什么，作品里就有什么。我的绘画过程所经历和所要呈现的自然流畅，气势非凡里的含蓄、细微，隐隐的某种感觉。如此的缓慢而又快速，是矛盾的统一，是一种动力，使我纠结、挣扎。然后发展、进步，安静、积极向上。

突破自我，一次次对生机勃勃和春意盎然的更贴切体会，如醍醐灌顶渐渐开悟，看到了肉眼看不到的东西。比如：空气、情感、思想、灵魂，等。之后，进入到另一个时空，就和死亡一样，向前走一步，再回来，走两步，再回来…如此反复，一点点地熟悉，另一个未知的世界。极力将此在我的作品里呈现出来，画好之后毁掉，然后再画，再毁掉，如痴如醉地反复完善，直到自己满意为止。

我要歌颂是自然、生命、成长的喜悦和对未知幸福的探求。就和做爱，突破一次又一次的高潮。努力忘掉我在学院里和专制下所学的虚伪的“假大空”的歌功颂德，忘掉过去学过的技法和思维模式，做到画不成那些画。追求真实的感受，逐渐积累新鲜感和生活里沉淀下来的所思所想。要具有先锋意识和超前性。充满矛盾的多维时空、极尽禅意的空和无、充满对抗的矛盾体、肆意挥洒的笔触是对旧的体制和专制下的腐朽消解、对主题为中心服务的消解，象征着对自由和对民主的渴望。而努力做到独立思考和追求完美人格体现。任何依附于权威和政体下的艺术都是寄生虫。所以，艺术家首先要脱离于物质和现实的束缚，抽离出时代的精神和独立的气质。表达真实的情感。

像一个孤独的星球在浩瀚的宇宙里慢慢壮大。我喜欢这样：孤独而兴奋，很舒服、惬意。没有丝毫恐惧和害怕，有的只是对未知的好奇和兴奋。我沉溺在此，在自己的创作的世界里不能自拔，像死去一样幸福，还能再回来。如此奇妙，这就是绘画带给我的。

Happiness like death –2014 Shi Li’s work report

In order to find my own way in drawing, I have been researching the trend in painting, poetry, and music between Eastern and Western for many years. Sometimes I prepare myself to a pious monk who keeping on questioning my painting. Get rid of selfishness and back into my inner, I have returned to a primitive state of doing the daily meditation practice, I feel quiet and happy. All men will enjoy nature and life when they can wipe off the semblance in society, as if man removes the specific image from painting. (Specific image can adversely affect people’s understanding of nature.) So, I shift from specific to abstract.

Painting is like a seed I planted in the soil, I see it slowly grow up under water, rain and sun. The process is fun and has lots of unexpected joy. Just like delving into colors and human touches to the maxima, a new sense produced. In pursuit of the ideal effect again and again, I never lose the resolution of digging into color and feeling nature life. What in thoughts, and what in works. Therefore what my painting experience and present is a sense of smooth in nature, a extraordinary momentum in subtle. Slow and fast is contradictory unity, it is a driving force to me which makes me struggling, and then developing, progressing, being in quiet and positive in the end.
I broke through myself again and again as a season of spring that full of vigor and vitality. I see invisible things such as air, emotions, thoughts, soul, and so on.
Drawing is just like an unknown world, perhaps like the death—we step forward and turn back many a time to be similar to the other world. I try to show it in my work. I countless times finished my work, then destroyed it, and draw again, destroy again until satisfaction.. Repeatedly in the pursuit of the ideal effect is on the higher color resolution, the fascination and the beauty of beauty deeper and higher, more insights on life. Ideas: what’s in, what there is in the works.

I praise nature, life, and the joy of growth and the searching for unknown happiness. Just like sex, men break the orgasm time and time again. I try hard to forget phony impracticality of what I learned in college and I learned under the dictatorship background. Regardless the skills and thought patterns I learned years ago, I pursuit of true feeling and keep cumulative fresh mind in life. Has a sense of pioneer and foresightedness is necessary. Multidimensional space that full of contradictions, ethereal deep Zen, and confrontation with those contradictions, all of them will finally make the old system of authoritarian decay, and the desire for democracy and freedom instead. I make an effort to keep independent thinking and the pursuit of perfect personality. Any art attached to authoritarian regime is a parasite. Therefore, artists need to divorce of material realistic bondage first and hold not only the spirit of times but also the independent temperament to express the true feeling.

Just like a lonely planet gradually grow up in the vastness universe. I like it that way: loneliness and excitement, very comfortable and cozy, without the slightest fear and what exists here is only curiousness and excitement to the unknown. I am enamored of my painting world and I feel happy as if I was dying, but I can come back. So amazing, here is what painting brings me.
