The most captivating power of Yu Runde’s "Ephemeral Spectrum" series lies in its revelation of the reversal between illusion and reality. What we habitually regard as the real and concrete world, under the artist’s deconstruction, lays bare its illusory essence—it is but a mirage projected by consciousness, a cage woven from language itself. Conversely, those elements long dismissed by tradition as illusory, the pure colors and abstract forms devoid of representation. Become when stripped of all mediation, the very vessels that channel the seething vitality and spiritual intensity of existence itself.
This is a breathtaking inversion: appearances are revealed as the ultimate illusion, while abstraction becomes a secret pathway to deeper, more profound reality. Yu Runde's paintings manifest this "reality of the abstract". He does not depict the outer shell of the world, but seeks instead to capture the primal force animating all things, a force rendered as light through color, as pulse through line.
余潤德《幻·色》系列最攝人心魄的力量,在於它揭示了「幻」與「真」的反轉。我們慣常視為「真實」的具象世界,在藝術家的解構下顯露出虛幻的本質——它是意識投射的幻影,是語言編織的牢籠。而那些被傳統認知視為「虛幻」的、非再現性的純粹色彩與抽象形態,卻在剝離所有仲介後,觸及了「存在」本身那沸騰的生命力與精神強度。這是一種驚人的顛倒:表像是終極的幻象,而抽象卻成為通往更深刻真實的秘徑。余潤德的畫作,正是這種「抽象的真實」的顯化。他並非描繪世界的外殼,而是試圖捕捉驅動世界運轉的「原力」——它以色彩為光,以線條為脈動。
