画画是安静的，是期盼的过程。在数小时独自冥想的过程里，澄思静虑，宁心静气，渐入佳“静”。

　　一张画就是一段不可追忆的往事，一种无法复原的现实。记忆中的故事在我的脑海中总是隔着一道时光的界线，在恍惚中，它时而很清晰，清晰得就像是在身边；时而很模糊，模糊得遥不可及。对于时间和空间而言，一切辉煌的过去终将消亡，我无法使时间倒流，更无法使记忆再现，我能做的只有怀念。

　　于是，我开始游弋于无形的艺术想象之中；漂泊在召唤与追忆之间；企图用画笔营造一所精神的家园。在这所“家园”里一切景象都源于我的记忆，我的任务便是将这些选择来的片段重新编辑和整理，使它成为一段故事；一段传说。

　　在我的观念里，世界上一切事物都是有所指代的，不同的物象给予人不同的暗示与隐喻。在绘画过程中，我需要根据我的人生体验，去选择记忆中的物象——树、小船、鱼、马、蜡烛、宝塔、风、云等等。这些物象组成了我的世界，我迷恋这个世界。我无法言喻画面中的每一个物象与痕迹具体象征着什么……它们本身是无序的，游离的。但有一点可以肯定，它们所传递的是一种人性的眷恋和心灵的寄托。

　　最终，我想表达的是我想、我思、我梦。

　　About painting

　　by Zhou Hai Feng

　　Painting is a peaceful process full of expectations. In several hours of independent meditation,I clear my mind and fall into the world of quietude.

　　Every piece of work is a memory unable to recell,and a reality beyond reproduction.the stories in my memory are always separated by the border of time.In the faraway status,it is sometimes definite,like something happening around you,or becomes vague and out of reach.In regard of time and space,the past,no matter how brilliant,will disappear.Icannot reverse the time or recreate the memory.All I can do is to memorize.

　　Thus,I start to fly in the intangible imagination of art and drift between recalling and memorizing.I attempt to build up a home of mind with my paintbrushes.At this "home",every scene is derived from my memory, while my mission is to re-edit and re-arrange these selected segments and turn them into a story.

　　In my opinion,everything in the world is suggestive.Different objects and images offer different implications and metaphors.during the process of painting,I have to select the objects in my memory with my life experience.Trees,boats,fish,horses,candles,pagoda,wing and clouds,all these objects form my world,which I love so much.I cannot explain what every object or mark in the scene actually symbolizes….They are of disorder and dissociation.However,one thing I can assure that they represent the sentiments of human nature and the settlement of mind.

　　Finally,I want to tell what I think,what I care,and what I dream.
