【Statement】

The discourse on “Euglena Program of Art - L'eprit de la Terre“

“Euglena Program of Art(EPA)” has started a new series of creations, named “L'eprit de la Terre”, from 2014. We collaborated to interpret our imaginations about nature and mother earth. Since we use the French word, l'eprit in the title to represent long-gone past, lost beautiful landscapes, or the conflict derived from natural erosion. Our impromptu creation style could endear senses to nature. The composition of a drawing, which relates it to emergence or disappearance of key frames, could reflect the state of mother earth. We believe that the "EPA" collaborations mean to reveal our unique aspect of and our thoughts on the subject.

About “Euglena Program of Art“

This program involved two extinguished artists, Lu, Mu-Jen and Chiao, Sheng-Wei. From 2011, we have enjoyed the brand new experience of co-creation while keeping their respectful pursue to the limit of art. Thus, we formed “Euglena Program of Art.” Euglena is a uni cellular creature, the only species which contains the physiological characteristics of both plants and animals on Earth. Some regard it the prototype and the very first type of life form. It could derive various improbable life forms. “Euglena Program of Art” seizes the variety and imaginations about lives. Also, the shape of euglena resembles Taiwan and leads to the vitality of our collaborations.

The main style of creating art work in this program is rather impromptu. Co-creation without drafts and discussions in advance helps maintain the free and open-minded attitudes, mutual trust and appreciations of each other’s created images. The interference is reduced to the least degree. We consider creation itself a language with great derivative possibilities. The process of co-creations is like conversing with each other by the means of images. It could be like forming stories or poems with collage of words, dealing with the relationship of interdependent system between nature and lives. Therefore, images would emerge, wither and disappear like plants or creatures in mother nature. Familiar with those images or not, the artists keep their sensitivity and constantly observe the changes, converse with each other and interact with the work in a pleasant atmosphere.
