碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 美術學系碩士在職專班 === 103 === The purpose of this study is about the emotions influence and inner feeling of artistic creation of a Taiwan native-born female artist. Like Freud had said, “The behavior and motivation of human being has its own purpose.” These words can also describe the creation. So what’s the purpose of art creating? We sometimes have chance to touch artistic creation and try to figure out what is art and why we create. Starting from female existence value, the creation is around external factors like family and social environment. Life structure is combined with life experience and mental experience. Through the interacting process, creator can explore the truth of self conscious and the possibility of awareness extending. The “SELF”, “THE WOMEN Series”, and “THE DIAMONDS Series” were created during the graduate school. Trying to backtrack the inner feelings of the creator, and then find out the connection between life and creation. In the SELF Series, it can allow us to view our inner state through the self-portrait creating process and result. The WOMEN Series describes the issue of female’s soul and bodies while the writing process. This series is not just present female body posture but finding the inner connection of it. It can be seen as the consciously, emotionally, conceptually, and ideologically overlapping and non-overlapping between creator and others. Viewing the diversity of subject and object, creator can achieve the purpose of awareness. The DIAMONDS Series use diamond (a specific subject) instead of human as depicted object. Projecting emotion upon diamond and turning it as a soul carrier. More specifically saying is “fleeing a female image through diamond.” Creating behavior is not just a process to create artifact. A complete behavior should present the desire and motivation from the beginning, and shape the essence of emotion during the creating process. Artifact can reflects desire and motivation, the meaning of creating behavior also can be understood from the details of differences and similarities.
