講座將從傳統山水畫出發，探討當代藝術家如何借用這一古老的筆墨語言，回應急速變化的城市景觀、社會議題與個人情感的表達。聚焦幾位以山水為創作核心的水墨藝術家，透過其代表作品，讓觀眾快速掌握傳統如何被重新詮釋與轉化的脈絡與框架。再進一步分享自身創作歷程：以山水作為表達載體，反映社會變遷與個體情感，探索「山水」如何從古典符號變成與當代對話的媒介。講座後半部分將現場即席示範傳統山水中樹、石、雲、水的基本畫法。

The lecture begins with traditional Chinese landscape painting, exploring how contemporary artists employ this aged-old language to respond to rapidly changing urban landscapes, social issues, and the expression of personal emotions. It will spotlight several ink artists who take landscape as their core creative practice, using their representative works to help the audience quickly grasp the context and framework of how tradition is reinterpreted and transformed. The speaker will then share her own creative journey: using landscape as a vehicle of expression to reflect social change and individual emotions, while probing how “landscape” evolves from a classical symbol into a medium for dialogue with the contemporary world. In the latter half of the session, the speaker will conduct a demonstration of the basic techniques for drawing trees, rocks, clouds, and steams in traditional landscape painting.
