《山之境》、 叶伟成
作品的灵感来源于中国古典园林中的空间序列。其中有关中国传统园林的名画——《东园图》，就是一个很好的例子。在这幅画中，一系列的场景从右往左展开，场景中有着丰富而有趣的细节——这像是一幅横卷式连环画。在这里，空间序列好比音乐之于空间的节奏感。

通过重建山、水、植物和建筑之间的关系，探索自然与人工之间的可能性
《山之境》探讨了这对似乎在人类文明进程中永恒的矛盾体—城市和自然。当然，现实中城市与自然的结合无疑比作品中仅仅呈现出的形式要复杂得多，但至少该作品为未来的城市图景呈现了一种思路。
而北宋范宽笔下的《溪山行旅图》实际上是《山之境》形式创作的蓝本。这幅画所描绘的自然景观对我来说非常震撼，画面中有许多引人注目而有趣细节，并且皴法的运用使得整个画面具有某种装饰意味。如下图所示是我对这幅原作的解读，我把这种解读运用于《山之境》的创作中。
我用现代建筑的形式诠释了原作。在我的画中，我以建筑体块来转移原作中的山石。我从原作中提炼出“构图”、“空间”、“质感”和“叙事”四个品质，并运用在我的创作中。在我的作品中，无论从上到下的构图，还是绘画中纵深的表现，我都会纳入在空间序列的表达中。与此同时，植物、石头、水和建筑体块的布置都遵循着秩序（主轴线），由此产生出层次感。此外，为了增加纵深感和空间序列，我尝试打破建筑体块并且打开“窗户”，由此来引导视线；而作品中的流水作为隐藏的轴线把自然要素和建筑体块串联在一起。。
画面中运用炭笔描摹出的肌理在生动地描绘了各种事物的同时呈现出一定的装饰感。尽管转译后的画中没有人物，我通过添加平台和窗等元素来表示引导视线并暗示场景与场景之间的关联，以达到空间叙事的目的。
《山之境》（The Spirit of Mountain）是用炭笔、铅笔绘制的，其细腻和富有想象力的表现受到建筑绘画奖评委的认可，该作品运用自然作为艺术介入，展现了当代建筑美学。
