Chiou Jong Jiun

1978

“Blue Sky and White Clouds” was created in 1978. The composition is anchored by an endless expanse of vivid blue sky, punctuated by soft white cloud textures that resemble soaring brushstrokes, lending the heavens a sense of movement. Below the horizon lies a lush tapestry of fields and waterways, their paths outlined in black like a network, with small boats drifting serenely. Silhouetted village houses and tower-like structures flank the scene, symbolizing human presence within nature. Through the balance of clean color blocks and open space, the print reveals Chiu Chung-Chun’s keen sensitivity to natural light and shadow, as well as his mastery of oil-based relief printing on cardboard.
