failed work

2013_a

Some attempted work is demoted to sketches.
This piece in particular was a special failure. Because I had a a strong and perfect idea of the piece in the beginning, while it turned out to be not visually working out at all in the end. This was supposed to be showing about the fractal with grid structure in background and create the certain visual rhythm. The idea was idea. This just visually looks bad and boring for the trace of controlled gestures.
When something like this happens, I always remember a phrase from someone in the college lecture that said “There are so many good ideas turned out to be bad art. Unlike large installation piece and sculptural pieces (as I make sometimes), planning in ahead rarely works for paintings.
