The role of a father and the once-lonely boy—
the sound of protection and the murmur of the self
arise from the same tender breath.
And fragments of time,
in the repetition of everyday routines,
bloom in silence.

Silently, I Bloom emerged after watching the film Aftersun.
The work gradually took shape as the artist kept recalling the film’s shattered imagery.
HSU Pei-Cheng notes,

“If I were not a father now, my experience of Aftersun—both during and after watching—might have been one of detachment, or even omission. Perhaps the tendrils of one’s life are always reaching toward every sincere moment of redemption.”

HSU’s painterly scenes evoke a gaze as if seen under the blazing sun—
where brightness and depth coexist,
where opulence meets decay.

Amid the interlacing of consciousness,
the obscured parts remain unspoken—
they simply bloom.

One room, one work, one encounter.
In quiet radiance, HSU Pei-Cheng’s new creation unfolds.

On Saturday afternoon, October 18,
welcome to the exhibition and listen as the artist shares his journey —
from a shy youth to a reserved, reflective man —
through his art and his life.
