穿著隨性自在的Colasa出身街頭畫家,擅長創作大面積且具張力的街頭塗鴉,此次將作品濃縮至畫布大小,在用色及主題上都有著不同以往的呈現。作品「我輝煌的命運之一」以獨特的街頭塗鴉手法及單一色系,描繪出看似兇猛威武的老虎,卻在畫作上潑上消融中的金漆,象徵著人類的貪婪慾望有如華麗的金漆般肆意破壞,即使再威風的猛獸也將瀕臨死亡危機,更巧妙用命名諷刺創作,讓大眾意識到作品背後的關懷議題。而艾麗的館藏作品「極夜之晝」,也正因其人造城市的環境諷刺意味深深吸引著Colasa的佇足欣賞,也開啟了不同時代的藝術家當下有著不一樣的創作交流。
Emerging as a casually dressed street painter, Colasa is a master of large, tension-filled street graffiti. In the art show, Colasa reduces his works to canvas size, presenting distinctive colors and themes different from the past. Featuring unique street graffiti techniques and single color tone, the work "One of My Glorious Destiny" depicts a seemingly ferocious mighty tiger with melting golden varnish splashed on it, the resplendent varnish symbolizing the arbitrary destruction caused by human greed and desire. Even an awe-inspiring beast is facing death crisis. Via the subtle ironic title, the creation prompts the public to be aware of caring issues behind the work. In addition, Colasa has been deeply attracted to Humble House Taipei's collection “The Day of Perpetual Night” for its irony to the environment in man-built cities. When Colasa stands appreciating the work, the artists in different eras are actually interchanging different ways of creation.
