바오 페이

바오 페이는 1960년 중국 안후이성에서 태어나, 1984년에 중앙미술학원(CAFA) 판화과를 졸업하고 1987년에 뉴욕으로 이주했다. 2003년에 귀국하여 현재는 베이징을 중심으로 활동하고 있다.


바오 페이의 예술 스타일은 그녀의 인생 경험을 집대성한 것이다. 10년 동안 유화 작업을 하던 바오 페이는 어느 날, 감촉이 좋은 수제 종이와 템페라 물감의 작은 병, 그리고 목판 잉크의 향기가 오랫동안 잊고 있던 기억을 떠올리게 했다. 중앙미술학원(CAFA)에서의 목판화 경험을 바탕으로, 붓 대신 나이프를 손에 들고 다시 목재를 조각하기 시작했다. 이 과정에서 전통적인 목판화 제작에 머무르지 않고, 끌로 조각하고, 그림을 그리고, 잉크와 템페라를 결합하는 등 작품이 최상의 상태가 될 때까지 덮거나 부수는 작업을 반복했다. 판화와 유화, 서로 다른 창작 스타일을 융합하여 바오 페이는 새로운 언어의 구축과 파괴를 반복한다. 10년 가까이 스타일과 소재 사이에서 끊임없는 가정과 실험을 거쳐, 지금의 혼합 재료 작품과 종이와 빛을 이용한 설치미술이 완성되었다.


바오 페이의 창작 과정은 감정을 언어로 기록하고, 그것을 다시 회화라는 매체에 담아 최종적으로 다층적인 구성과 레이아웃에 도전하는 행위이다. 감정의 폭발로서 그녀의 이미지는 복잡한 사이클 속에서 지극히 다층적이며, 억제 속에서 해방되고, 영원 속에서 표현력이 풍부한 형태에 도달하고, 회귀하고, 정지한다.
