For this reason, peacefulness has become increasingly precious. Although contributors receive a stable economic condition, laboring day after day makes life feel like under constant “output”. Under refined distribution of labor, contributors gradually evolve to being specialized at certain fields. From a different perspective, it is actually a shrinking of learning fields, with our mental thoughts becoming increasingly linear. Factoring in the accumulated stress over months and years, the mind does not get enough rest even if the body does. Under this hectic situation in dire need of a pause, contributors choose instead to lift their pens, use the world of writing and fiction as a secluded harbor from the outside world. This research uses the contributor’s life stats as the starting point and uses landscape paintings as tools of display material. Beginning with the material selection of landscapes with vast spaces and indistinct perspective guidance, the arrangement of composition, color, brightness etc., has changed it to the appearance of the contributor’s internal mind. The scenery is used to portray a deeply emotional “soliloquy” with the landscape. The contributor mainly uses flat landscape composition to exhibit a sense of yearn for peacefulness after being alone and secluded. For the contributor, art creation is a lonely journey of learning, which provides self-healing in the process.
