Transfiguration
 

Artists   Li Ning
 

"Transfiguration" is artist Li Ning's reflection on life—an inner transformation shaped by her search for self and ongoing introspection. Confronted by the turbulence and uncertainty of recent years, she has felt a spiritual heaviness on humans in contemporary society. In response, she began to observe, listen to, and contemplate the world's realities from multiple perspectives. Within the traditions of Eastern religious philosophy, Li Ning found a path to inner peace and clarity, and she transformed these insights into her artistic practice. Through mediums such as calligraphy, photography, and installation, she captures the often-overlooked details and objects of everyday life, revealing the extraordinary beauty hidden within the ordinary. Her work poses a profound philosophical inquiry: "Who am I? And who is the 'me'?" This exploration of identity and existence unfolds as a spiritual journey—one she invites viewers to join, offering a space for introspection and quiet awakening.

The Exhibition

《幻化》是艺术家宁莉对人生的体悟，是她在寻求自我与不断反思中所经历的内在蜕变。面对近年来世界局势的动荡与不安，她深切感受到当代社会人的重重压力，也因此开始尝试从多重角度去观察、倾听和思考现实的种种现象。在东方传统文化中，宁莉找到了通向内心平静与智慧的方法，并将这种体悟转化为艺术创作。她以书法、摄影、装置及数字艺术等多种媒介，记录下生活中常被忽略的细节与物象，呈现出那些“不平常的平常之美”。通过作品，她提出了富有哲思的追问：“我是谁？谁是我？” 这是对身份与存在的追溯，也是她借由艺术所展开的精神之旅，邀请观者一同走入内省与觉察的空间。
