Abstract The discourse titled “Blossom Psyche” is a self-exploration through my creations. My intention is to investigate the metaphysical state of human mental performance. Through a coincidental encounter of the ego and the super ego, my intrinsic self was forged with the psyche and was presented in my creations of printmaking. We came to this planet, open to a world of experience. The development of abstraction enables us to establish a link with the real world. The method of abstraction plowed through the way of human civilization, refined the universality of the world, and helped people to escape from the restriction of concreteness. It is in this invisible and intangible abstract world that we could rethink and seek for the spirit of civilization. My creations of printmaking include four series of work: “Microcosm”, “Lyrical Abstraction”, “Ann Weekly Drawings”, and “Mandela”. They released the objective of images from vagarious contingency and created the eternal value through the form of abstraction. I attempted to penetrate into myself through an intuitive way. A surrealistic approach was used to express various emotions by means of point, line, block, color, shape, and composition. The imagination and the power of abstraction were ultimately inspired with each other. The inherent nature of Post-Modernism is the ability that through the symbols, the psyche generalizes itself. Language employs its logic, which was established based on language itself, to restore the world to the symbol. This is also the process to transform the nature into the culture and to transform the culture into an intrinsic system of the sign. I attempted to convert the messages stemming from different dreams and inspiration into the form which person could understand, appreciate, and apply. Looking forward to this discourse could express the energy of the psyche. It is through this mental power that I obtain my rebirth.
