桑火尧先生从1998年以来探索方块叠加艺术创作方法以及境象主义艺术观,已被中国当下多位著名批评家和策展人著文评述。纵观桑火尧的艺术创作,基本可以归结为以下几点:一是“方块叠加”方法论,成为其明确的作品身份识别符号。其多年以来探索中国画笔墨叙事方式,颠覆了传统笔墨程式,方块笔墨叠加已经成为他的艺术符号和自我身份符号,并由此构成衍生不同图式、不同系列的作品。方块符号是基于周易卦象和中国古代文字造型的形式意义,而笔墨叠加则是汲取北宋米家山水的积叠方法。二是当代科技与传统哲学激荡下的境象主义艺术观,让传统在当下激活。当下科技、互联网的虚拟世界的想象的无限性,成就了其作品空灵虚淡的主调性,而这又与老庄哲学观,亦与以元代倪云林为代表的文人艺术静逸空旷气质相契合。可以说,科技与互联网技术,让一切显得无限可能性,也深刻影响着中国当代人的审美意识,由此也拉近了与西方抽象艺术的审美解读距离。三是作品中的灵光视感充满了当代人对重塑信仰的期待。社会现代化进程,在人与人、人在与科技的博弈中,往往会显得十分孤独寂寞,人们更需要精神关怀,心灵抚慰。而其作品中的光感具有神圣感和崇高感,仿佛进入了宗教的境域,让人充满希望、倍感宁静和愉悦。
他的这种以方块为基质的抽象性笔墨语言建构,既有别于中国画传统的意象艺术,又与西方的抽象艺术拉开距离,这就是艺术家开创的境象主义艺术,即拓展了水墨艺术的当代性表达,对延续中国画的千年文脉具有探索意义,使其能够进入国际艺术视野的一个重要艺术个案。

Sang Huoyao has been experimenting with color squares and the concept of Jing Xiang since 1998, which has elicited the attention of many art critics. His art is comprised of a few points: the first is the "color block" method, which is a trademark of his art. This has become a method of investigation and a self-identifying signature of his oeuvre, manifesting in different composition and structure. The color block comes from the ancient characters of the Chinese language, and also based on the famous Northern Song Mi Family's style of landscape painting. Secondly, it is borne of modern technology and philosophy, which allows for the passing of tradition. This also reflects the ancient philosophy of Lao Zhuang, reflecting the refined air of the literati. It can be said that the marriage of technology and the internet has given rise to a boundless potential, which reflects a contemporary sense of aesthetics in the Chinese. The third reflects the faith of this modern age. With the progress of society, between man and technology, people oftentimes feel loneliness, and the power of the art work lies in eliciting a heightened sense of Holiness, like as if one has entered a place of religion.
His language of color blocks has narrowed the gap between Chinese traditional art as well as Western abstract art, which is also a reflection of the artist's concept of Jing Xiang, increasing the contemporary expression of ink art, prolonging the tradition of Chinese art, which enlarges the potential of this contemporary language on the international stage.
