PSYCHOPOMP
William Monk uses the canvas as a gateway, drawing viewers into a realm of endless journey with no beginning or end. Time freezes on the canvas, with repetitive images set against an ambiguous backdrop. The thin pointillist textures act like a veil, revealing a passage to another world once dispersed. Are we stepping into the artist’s subconscious, or the afterlife guided by Charon, the ferryman of the Greek underworld?

Autumn Mountains Waiting for the Moon
Originating from the Five Emperors, fans were first crafted by Emperor Shun and initially served as ceremonial objects, symbols of status among the elite. Over time, fans evolved into items for cooling, play, collection, and gift-giving. With various types like feather fans, palm fans, silk fans, and folding fans, their significance has endured through the ages. From the Tang dynasty’s poetic references to the continued tradition of painting and writing on fan surfaces, fans have become treasured artifacts.

Behind the Scenes Without Walls
In this creative process, the artist continues to employ the technique of pairing negative woodblocks with color fields. Various symbolic elements are suspended within the gallery space, forming “reliefs” infused with street culture. The exhibition space is akin to the “backstage” of a theatrical performance, where visitors can freely navigate through the installation, experiencing the shifting perspectives and visual angles with their bodies. From the “front,” the pure color block compositions offer an open and expansive view; while from the “back,” viewers can only gaze at the symbolic arrangements from specific, deliberate angles.
