In the environment of Zheng Guogu\u2019s\u00a0Liao Garden<\/em>\u00a0(an ongoing garden\/land project initiated in 2000), there is the circling of the koi, and there is the intricately layered aquatic system; there is the house made of reinforced concrete, and there is the overgrown plant life; there are the tealeaves that are the compressed distillation of vegetal essences, and there is the \u201csymbol-less\u201d \u201cworld of pure energy\u201d to which Zheng Guogu aspires. As though in response to this carefully constructed environment, Zheng Guogu\u2019s paintings are dedicated to the transmission of visions of sensory energy \u2013 visions that develop according to diverse trajectories across different temporal processes until they turn into colors and images.<\/p>\n

In the recent\u00a0Visionary World in a Changing State of Mind<\/em>\u00a0(\u5fc3\u80fd\u8f6c\u5883) series, Zheng Guogu (\u90d1\u56fd\u8c37) places the observational center of energy at the \u201cheart chakra.\u201d Located at the axis of the \u201cchakra system,\u201d the \u201cheart chakra\u201d is generally considered to be the source of emotional energy. Zheng views the expansion of the \u201cheart chakra\u201d to be a process resulting from an individual\u2019s correspondence with different settings, and suggests that by using one\u2019s heart to correspond with art\u2019s various forms, the viewer will undergo an evolution in their mental state, leading to the opening up of new dimensions of personal perception. Alongside these explorations of energy,\u00a0in Visionary World in a Changing State of Mind,<\/em>\u00a0Zheng is also concerned with placing paintings within types of everyday environments, as well as placing scenes depicted in paintings into the real environment, such as bringing willows and flowing streams into the space of Mirrored Gardens. The sound of the water and the voice of the heart are placed in mutual reflection and harmony, through which the possibilities of mutual transformation between one\u2019s mental state and the environment can be explored.<\/p>\n

This type of experimentation uses one\u2019s own self as the medium, through which one experiences flows of energy that cannot be articulated with language. And, in the end, the endeavor invites other entities to participate in testifying to this experience. Perhaps we are merely intertwining particles in this quantum world, ceaselessly searching for a vector that can be the trajectory for our life energy.<\/p>\n
