柳順天自1996年起持續探索石雕與鋼索的結合,開啟獨特的雕塑語彙。對他而言,鋼索象徵著超越性的「真理」——既不生不滅,又如無形準繩,指引思想與精神的秩序。這條準繩既是藝術的內在法則,也是面對生命困境時的解脫之道。在石的重量與鋼索的張力之間,他的作品展現出物質與精神、可見與不可見的平衡。
Since 1996, Shun Tian LIU has been exploring the boundaries of stone sculpture in combination with steel cables, developing a distinctive sculptural language. For Liu, the cable symbolizes a transcendent “truth”—eternal, neither born nor extinguished, serving as an invisible guideline for thought and spirit. This axis of order is not only an artistic principle but also a path toward liberation amid life’s struggles. Between the weight of stone and the tension of steel, his works reveal a balance of material and spirit, visible and invisible, grounding sculpture in both physical resonance and metaphysical inquiry.
