WU I-CHIEN
吳怡蒨
吳怡蒨1968年出生彰化，自國立台灣師範大學美術系畢業後，赴美攻讀並取得紐約普拉特藝術學院（Pratt Institute）碩士。
曾任職中天電視台並任教銘傳大學商業設計系，現專職於藝術創作。其創作反映藝術家對社會現象及環境議題的深刻體察，引起觀者反思及共鳴，曾受邀展出於台北當代美術館、師大美術館、法國及韓國當地藝術機構。
其在創作中持續探討著抽象與具象之間的界線，將繪畫中的基本元素-線，經由鏡頭向後退觸碰到線條邊界，最終看到具體造型，成為我們熟悉的物件。近三年發展出的《書籍》系列，可見其筆下的書本被刻意放大至出框，破格處理淡化書本身的意義，更多玩味書側的線性結構，並運用擠壓、扭曲變形的手法暗示訊息恣意散播及資訊不正確性的時代現象。
Wu I -Chien was born in Changhua in 1968. After graduating from the National Taiwan Normal University Department of Fine Arts, Wu traveled to the US and gained her master’s degree from the Pratt Institute.
Wu worked at Chung T'ien Television and Ming Chuan University Department of Commercial Design and currently works as an artist full time. Wu’s works reflect her profound observations of social phenomena and environmental issues and have been deeply inspirational for viewers. Wu has been invited to show her works at the Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei, National Taiwan Normal University Art Museum, as well as contemporary art institutions in France and Korea.
Wu has always explored the boundaries between abstract and figurative art. The fundamental element of paintings, the line, is stretched to the extreme as the lens zooms out, allowing us to see the figurative design, transforming into objects we are familiar with. The Book series, which the artist has worked on for the past three years, depicts books that are deliberately enlarged, while the handling method of the image diminishes the meaning of books and instead allows the vision to focus on the linear structures presented on the sides of books. By incorporating compression and distortion methods, the works allude to the phenomenon of our times where false information is being circulated.
