在李维最近的系列画作中,她深入探讨了编织与绘画之间的关系。创作过程中,她通过笔触构建出线条,将画面中的不同抽象元素编织在一起,逐渐形成复杂且多层次的构图。李维借用了编织这一概念,作为女性劳动的象征性隐喻。在这些画作中,抽象的身体形态成为表现女性身体和心理体验的重要媒介。这些模糊的身体形象被各种线条包围或与之交织,带来了一种紧张感和迷失感,唤起了人们对编织这一劳动密集型活动的联想——这种活动在历史上与女性劳动有着深厚联系。编织中精细的交织过程与女性劳动中的经验、韧性和创造力相呼应。
李维作品中的线条和纹理不仅构建了视觉上的复杂性,还映射了女性心理的多重维度。明亮的色彩和复杂的构图增添了情感层次,这些线条与抽象的身体形象交织,创造出一种约束感,反映了女性在社会中如何体验自我。画面中的身体形态往往显得受限或被束缚,象征着当代女性承受的心理和社会多重压力。
李维在构图中寻求约束与自由的反复碰撞,通过充满力量的笔触和错综复杂的构图,探讨了当代女性情感和心理层面的细腻感受,婉转地表达了她们在社会中挣扎与自我表达的张力。
In Wei Li’s recent series of paintings, she explores the connection between weaving and painting, using weaving as a metaphor for feminine labor. In her process, she creates brushstrokes that mimic threads, weaving together abstract elements. By interlacing body forms and brushwork, she builds intricate, layered compositions that delve into women’s physical and psychological experiences. The threads in her work introduce a sense of tension and disorientation, evoking the labor-intensive act of weaving—historically associated with women’s work—and its meticulous process of interlacing to form patterns. This mirrors the layers of experience, resilience, and creativity present in feminine labor.
 
In her paintings, the interwoven lines and textures reflect the complex psychological space of women, with vivid colors and intricate structures adding emotional depth. The abstract body forms represent how a woman experiences herself, often appearing constrained or entangled, symbolizing the psychological and societal pressures tied to femininity and the body. The recurring theme of tension between constraint and freedom suggests the burden of societal expectations.
 
Through her energetic brushwork and complex compositions, Wei reflects on the emotional and psychological aspects of femininity, as well as the weight of representation placed on women’s bodies in contemporary society.
