In Tseng’s artistic journey, the interplay between lines, lights, and shadows has been a profound exploration for the artist, with a special focus on wood-engraving. It all began during her studies at the Accademia di Belle Arti of Florence, where the research of forms, lights, and shadows became an integral part of her artistic practice. Through experimentation with traditional oil painting, drawing, and printmaking, she explored the diverse qualities of lines and their potential. This journey led to a harmonious fusion of simple yet potent means of artistic expression with the ancient wisdom of Chinese philosophy such as I Ching, marking the inception of a lifelong quest to unravel the intricate dance of lines and the interplay of light and shadow. Through the discipline of wood-engraving, the artist investigates the concept of lines, lights, and shadows as a profound meditation on existence. Each line carved into the wood is a decision, a balance between the presence and absence of light. It is a moment of control over the play of shadows, a dance of control and release. This exploration is more than an artistic process; it is an ongoing dialogue with the concept of lines and their relationship with light and shadow. Each artwork is an embodiment of time, energy, and thought, a reflection of the intricate interplay of elements that shape our world. In essence, wood-engraving is a lifelong journey of researching lines, lights, and shadows as a means of expressing the complexities of the human experience. It is a continuous exploration of how these elements come together to evoke emotions, create depth, and tell stories. It is a conversation with the essence of existence itself. It is the perfect technique to interpret the uninterpretable.
