鄭瓊娟（B.1931-），五月畫會創始員，國立台灣師範大學美術系畢，現年90歲。

鄭瓊娟創作的不是單純的畫，她沒有利益、地位與名氣的沉重包袱，而作品就是毫無掩飾的「真實」，可以是思想、哲學或永恆性的。

她專注創作數十載，對生命的探究，不單僅是理論，還有無邊浩瀚的感受；境界有多遠，心就更遠。

當我們專心看著畫的時間愈久，感觸愈深。

全世界的每一個人，只要是人類，一生都有數不完的身心創傷，年紀愈大，累積愈多，負面記憶不斷來回出現，似乎永遠無解。

人身為智慧的生物，該如何做出應有的反思，轉化為正面。

外在不變，唯一能做的，好像就是改變自己，世界自然就跟著翻轉，得到和諧自在。然而，我們不是去改變人的本性基因，而是處世觀，圓融的行為。

接著，人還可以藉由自己的角色與能力，把光帶給周邊的人，奉獻及慈愛，無論一生是30年或100年光陰。

相較於大地或宇宙，人的生命短暫得微不足道，但我們製造出來的光，其影響是累世的，再結合其他人的光，映照天地。

文字本身有侷限，它只是一個導引，而鄭瓊娟的藝術作品，與一個人一樣，都是無限的可能與潛能。我們可以論述，亦能在其中找到自我所需，透過視覺感受，在紛亂快步調的時局中，得到寧靜與領悟，換來永恆性的內心快樂。

CHENG Chung-chuan: Twilight

⋄ Duration | September 4 – October 3, 2021
⋄ Venue | Powen Gallery (No.11, Ln. 164, Songjiang Rd., Zhongshan Dist., Taipei City, Taiwan, 10:00-19:00 Closed on Mondays)
⋄ Joint Exhibition | Moons Art Gallery (No. 365, Section 2, Gongdao 5th Road, East District, Hsinchu City).

Cheng Chung-Chuan (B.1931-), a founding member of the Fifth Moon Art Group and graduated from the Department of Fine Arts, National Taiwan Normal University, is now 90 years old.

Cheng Chung-Chuan’s creative artworks go beyond pure paintings. She is not burdened by interests, status, and fame. Her works reveal undisguised truth, which bears either ideational, philosophical, or eternal characteristics.

She has focused on creative works for decades. Her exploration of life is not only about theories, but also boundless feelings. The deep meanings that her works reveal reflect the profoundness of a creator’s mind.

The longer we watch her paintings, the deeper our feelings get.

As long as they are humans, everyone in the world will have countless physical and mental traumas throughout their lives. The older they are, the more they accumulate these traumas. Negative memories continue to emerge back and forth. It seems that there will be no solutions forever.

Human beings are creatures with wisdom. They should reflect on themselves and turn a negative thought into a positive spin.

The physical world remains unchanged. The only thing that can be done is to change oneself. Thus, one’s world will naturally turn around and get harmonious and comfortable. We are not to change who we are, but rather our attitude. We can behave in a more all-around and harmonious manner.

People can bring light to others around them through their roles and abilities. It is about dedication and love. This can be done regardless of how long one’s life will last, 30 years or 100 years.

Compared with the earth or the universe, human life is short and insignificant. However, the light we create will have a multi-generational impact. When it is combined with other people’s light, they altogether make the world shine.

Writing has limitations in and of itself, and it is only a guide. However, just like an individual, Cheng Chung-Chuan’s creative artworks have unlimited possibilities and potentials. We can discuss or find what we need in her works. Through our visual experience, we will obtain tranquility, enlightenment, and eternal inner happiness in the chaotic and fast-paced environment.
