An observation I had during exhibition setup—perhaps not universally true, but certainly thought-provoking.
The externalization of one’s inner world isn’t limited to clothing; it can also manifest in the dimensions of one's creative work, at least from an artistic standpoint. The design and color of a piece often give us a general sense of the artist’s personality—whether warm, distant, or something more nuanced. But the scale of the work feels like a projection of how much of themselves the artist is willing to present to the outside world. The smaller the piece, the more reserved it seems—almost as if the artist is reluctant to be seen. The larger it is, the more boldly it asserts itself, revealing a desire to occupy space and be witnessed.
布展时的一个观察，不一定对但很有意思。人内在的外化不仅体现在服装，还可以体现在创作作品的尺寸上（就艺术角度而言）。作品的设计和色彩展现可以让我们感受一个人性格的大体，或许热情或许冷漠又或者更复杂等等。但创作载体的大小就仿佛人自身“想要展现给外界多少存在”的意识投射。越小越内敛，越不想被暴露，反之越张扬。
