【藝術家展覽介紹】
「哲學是撿起前人射出之箭然後再射向遠方」。不過，當你撿起地上的前人之箭準備拋射時，發現地上你能所見之處早已密密麻麻的插滿箭，有些是前人大師留下的，有些是跟你同時代的前輩甚至是晚輩。要找到一塊可以成為目標之地，是這樣的困難，尤其是繪畫這個古老的媒材。
「第一神拳」主角 幕之內一步 自己研發出的輪轉位移，雖然破壞性強，但規律的大動作卻與現代拳擊觀念背道而馳。一步不僅是追逐自己的夢想，也是向現代拳擊的觀念做出挑戰，他的「輪轉位移」也不同於當初的輪轉位移，而是面對現代拳擊後的持續進化，這樣從自身出發面對環境、面對觀念作出回應，也是藝術創作者同樣面對的，絕對不是拿個符號或流行關鍵字來做做樣子，那不是一個拳擊手該有的戰鬥姿態。

【Exhibition Statement】
"Philosophy is that you pick up the arrows that had been shot by the predecessors and then shoot them into the far distance." However, when you pick up the arrows shot by predecessors from the ground and prepare to shoot, you discover that the certain areas of the ground are already full of arrows: some are left by the masters and some are your contemporaries and even the young. It is hard to find a place that can be a new target to shoot, especially painting as an ancient medium.

Although the protagonist, Ippo Makunouchi, in The First Step develops a destructive technique called Dempsey Roll, his regular as well as big movements are highly in contrary to the moves defined by modern boxing. Ippo is not only to pursue his own dream, but also to challenge the definition of modern boxing. His "Dempsey Roll " is different from the original rotational displacement as it has been continuously evolving in modern boxing. His technique is the result of reactionary to the environment from its own as well as to definition of modern boxing. Likewise, artists also shall have this kind of reactionary response like Ippo’s boxing technique. Just like boxers who are always alert and honest to themselves, artists absolutely shall not be pretentious by simply using symbols or popular keywords to make art.
