生活在這個世界上的每個人都是旅行者，亦包括動物們。
Everyone living in this world is a traveler, including animals.
隨著年末的腳步逼近，大雋藝術榮幸呈獻藝術家白田誉主也的個展 — — 《旅路9》。本展覽不僅是一次視覺的饗宴，亦是深層心靈的探索。生命本身是一段不息的旅程，隨著時間推移流轉，我們得以深入觀察、體驗並領悟其中的價值與美好。數字9不僅標誌藝術家在台灣生活的第九年，更象徵著時間的概念及循環。我們誠邀您在藝術家的引領下，通過其畫作中所描繪的動物群象及其精神特質，一同感受生命的流動與節奏。
As the year draws to a close, Rich Art Gallery is honored to present the solo exhibition of artist Hakuta Yoshuya — TABIJI 9. This exhibition is not only a visual feast but also a profound exploration of the inner self. Life itself is an ongoing journey, and as time progresses, it is through time that we can witness, feel, and recognize its worth and beauty. The number 9 not only marks the artist’s ninth year living in Taiwan but also symbolizes the concept and cycle of time. Through the artist’s guidance, we kindly extend a warm invitation to everyone to ponder life’s mysteries via the spiritual attributes presented by animals within the canvases.
「生活在這個世界上的每個人都是旅行者」，這理念不僅適用於人類，同樣深刻地體現在動物生命經歷中。藝術家以其獨特手法 — — 在傳統日本和紙上運用膠彩及多種箔類，細膩地描繪動物肌理，為作品注入豐富層次感。他栩栩如生地呈現動物們英姿颯爽、神采奕奕的風貌。面對命運，動物從不逃避，而是攜手同伴，勇於面對挑戰、克服困境，邁向未知旅程。
“Everyone living in this world is a traveler”, this concept applies not only to humans but also deeply mirrors the experiences of animals. Through the use of traditional Japanese washi paper, Asian gouache pigments, and a variety of foils, Hakuta skillfully captures the textures of animals with a distinct style that gives his paintings depth and richness. He portrays animals in all their majesty and energy with vividness. Animals never back down from a challenge posed by fate. Rather, they heroically face obstacles and overcome misfortune with their companions as they bravely venture into the unknown.
白田誉主也筆下的動物們，其身體語言透露著微妙訊息，為作品創造出更多想像空間。他期望觀者能在其中感受動物們所展現之精神、氣質和生命力，並與自身生活經驗相融合，引發內心共鳴。此次展覽旨在激勵觀者如同動物般，克服心中恐懼，保持信念，以無畏的冒險精神直面人生。每個人都在自己的旅程中，以獨特方式體驗著生命所賜予的豐厚回饋；《旅路9》同時為觀者提供反思自身所處旅程的契機，思考生命的方向與意義。大雋藝術誠摯邀請各界藝術愛好者，共同踏上這場藝術與生命交織的探索之旅。
The animals in Hakuta’s works convey subtle messages through their body language, creating space for deeper imagination. He hopes that viewers can sense the spirit, character, and vitality of these animals and merge them with their own life experiences to evoke inner resonance. This exhibition aims to inspire viewers to, like animals, conquer their inner fears, hold fast to their faith, and face life with a fearless, adventurous spirit. Each person, on their unique journey, experiences the rich rewards life offers in their own way. TABIJI 9 also provides an opportunity for viewers to reflect on their own journey, contemplating the direction and meaning of life. Rich Art Gallery sincerely invites art lovers from all walks of life to embark on this journey of exploration, where art and life beautifully intertwine.

全新三米作品《旅》展現出黑色背景映襯出五匹馬齊心朝向同一方向。如同當我們踏上一條未知的旅程，內心的沮喪、焦慮、不安隨之而來，而這時我們最需要的便是一份堅定的信念和同伴的支持。正是這種陪伴，使我們相信旅程的最終將會是那期盼的終點。藝術家深刻表現出在困境中堅持和共同奮鬥之重要性，勾勒出對未來的希望及信心。
The latest three-meter artwork, Journey, features five horses moving together in unison, set against a dramatic black background. This powerful piece captures the sensation of setting off on an unknown adventure, often resulting in feelings of dissatisfaction, anxiety, and uncertainty. During these challenging times, what we need most is unwavering faith and the support of our companions. This sense of unity fuels our hope that the journey will eventually lead us to our intended destination. Hakuta masterfully illustrates the importance of perseverance and solidarity in the face of adversity, painting a vision of hope and confidence for the future.
