Aesthetic Discourse as 'Weather Map
in the universe, a human being whose figures both look abstract form and concrete figure both seem veiled and blurred, but it stands for a symbolic thing of mother nature or an extremely tiny and slightest thing, and he thinks that is merely a trifling fragment by composing factor of it. Unlimited space in principle has some kind of magical mighty, also abruptly has changing and continually the climate is moving on the planet, which occurs unfounded some of the mutations under the divine with somewhat greatness which multiplies and but evolves their movement unceasingly.
Recently a trend of contemporary art that we see ambiguously budging on, as if meaningless under the frame of pluralism and it still seems not to be unveiled the contemporary its tendency, would rather than equivocal status likely dubious being. Despite this, artists do not spare their efforts all the time to create awesome ones. Through these imaginative views, he still forges to invent a new concept through his intuition with vibrant visual contemplation by interacting with some figurative things, and he tries to find out something metaphysical words, in formative of the oddity, it looks like mystic things, conjuring something in captivating appeal, also whatever, whenever he is some time in some way, his eyes still keeping on tension that shall be immersed in an optical illusion, exposing figures as clear as crystal, as white clouds, green forests, even stirring up the colored field like abstract paintings which are painted deliberately by hidden his intention on canvas its wonder and virtuosity from the nature. All those are expressed and symbolized by him in the anxiety of living as the theme of its method as 'the weather map' by his philosophical intuition and aesthetic implication of an issue.
'The Weather Map', his formative views and invisible things in his artworks as a symbol using metaphorical, paradoxical, and ironical language. it exposes some of the vague shapes through his depiction. A crucial thing is how we could harmonize our lives to survive on the earth, whether employing idealistic or utopia, both are fused into utmost exquisitely, however, just question remains. Hence, he'd focus on those issues as a discourse of aesthetics, this is just what his pictorial essence is as an aesthetics language to communicate with people. It is a message that probably to protect from all the catastrophes and to preserve the well of nature on the planet an issue. However, he said 'I consider and imply it is an absurd and abstruse thing to express it on canvas from my angle, even an irresistible thing for anyone who could be able to do it, except it shall be just delivered to the people by imagination. Despite this, an artist, who necessarily uses way by contemplating to look into seductive and abstract objects, eventually transforms comprehensive language or a visible image to empathize with the public eye. 'I'd therefore persistently try to verify its mysterious substance that will finally turn out some of the greatness from the core of nature with virtuosity by using as a media and methodology for my artworks, which concept through my artistic insight what I do emphasis on.' He mentioned.
