I received the "Hennessy X.O 2021 Chinese New Year Special Edition" launched by the world's leading cognac brand-Hennessy during the Lunar New Year. Hennessy asked me to share my thoughts about this special edition wine.
This whole last year has been unique for us all and I have stayed in my studio even longer than before. Compared with the ups and downs and the chaos outside the studio, I still encountered vividly my good days and bad days during the art creation process. As an artist and a painter, I am better at expressing my feelings of Hennessy Cognac through my work.
The Hennessy Cognac is from France. It uses specific white grapes and double distillation. The wine then curated the French oak barrels scent from being stored in it. Upon the first sip, I was greeted with the sweetness of fruit and chocolate. Then, layers over layers of fragrances of cinnamon, cloves and cardamom followed.
This experience reminds me of the French Nobel Prize winner, Camus. He was an existential philosopher, a dramatist, and a novelist. He was also from a special time.
His ability to integrate his life experiences and thoughts into his works made reading his novels enjoyable. Each time I read his novels, I follow the changes of the plots. The more I read, the more enjoyable I become.
Therefore, I created this "Burning Camus" painting to honor this special Hennessy Cognac.
In this uncertain time, commemorate the human destiny; commemorate the courage that we have to face our fate; commemorate our rebirth. This is what I feel in regards to my experience with "Hennessy X.O 2021 Chinese New Year Special Edition".
收到了全球領導干邑品牌-軒尼詩，農曆春節推出的「軒尼詩 X.O 2021年春節特別版 」請我談談對於它的感受。
去年到今年對人類而言如此的特別，然而，對於我而言，待在工作室的時間更長了，相較於工作室外的天翻地覆流動與改變，我仍然細細感受著著每個創作中遭遇順利與不順利的「Good day」與「Bad day」。
作為一位藝術家，一位畫家，我更擅長使用畫面來表達我對軒尼詩干邑的感受。
來自法國的軒尼詩干邑使用特定的白葡萄與雙重蒸餾，置於法國橡木桶中薰陶過後的酒體，入口後迎來的是水果與巧克力的香甜，緊接著肉桂、丁香與小豆蔻的氣味層層堆疊。
立刻讓我想到了同樣來自特殊年代的法國諾貝爾獎得主，一位存在主義哲學家、戲劇家、亦是小說家的卡繆Camus。
將自己的生命歷程及思想巧妙地融入於作品之中，每每閱讀他的小說，隨著情節變化越讀越有滋味。
所以我為這款酒創作了這幅「燃燒的卡繆」以此作為紀念。
在這個不容易的年代，
紀念人類的命運。
紀念人類面對命運的勇氣。
紀念人類的重生。
這就是我對「軒尼詩 X.O 2021 年春節特別版 」的感受。
