STATEMENT OF ART/
To FangChun Lo, art is a kind of belief in persisting sensitivity but also a kind of rational persistence. She gives a new soul to the construction of the narrative text with paintings, and is better at figuring out the psychology of the characters, which is expressed in the dialogue between the characters. Fangchun Lo, who is good at choosing different themes to challenge herself, has diverse themes in her art, and the only constant is "love." As an artist, Fangchun Lo is sensitive and diligent in exploring things related to life and spirituality, trying to find out the exploration of life, the observation of society, and the identity of the world’s cultures.

Secret Realm
The Camellia and Leopard Series
2017, 45cm×108cm, watercolor, Chinese ink
Secret Realm is a branch of the Camellia Leopard Series. It is a pure art series of works, which extends the independent elegance of the women of the Florence Camellia brand Logo. The camellia to Florence is a symbol of love. It corresponds to the visual conflict of the leopard but has developed a series of stories about the relationship between the two sexes, which also echoes the love concept of people in real life.
The leopard has the characteristics of power leap, beauty of shape, and delicateness of heart. They are not many, but they are very precious.
The leopard possesses surprising explosive power, but his personality is calm and restrained. With the softest posture, he walks through the forest in a low-key manner. He walked into the wild purple jungle, looking everywhere, but saw the tenderness of the pink camellia. She shows a tension and contrast that is contending and uncontested, reflecting a rare but noble soul, knowing the heart, doing what she wants but never overstepping the rules.

Gorgeous Sublimation
The Sugarapple Blessing series
2018, 39m×54cm, watercolor, mix media
Taiwanese cross-border artist FangChun Lo has visited Taitung in eastern Taiwan several times, and is deeply fascinated by the same color of the sea and sky. The "Sugarapple Blessing" sketch is a creation inspired by a stone found by FangChun Lo in "Taitung Seaside Park".
The fruit Sugarapple is a gift from the native land of Taitung and has high nutritional value. Taiwan is the world's largest producer. Its round and full shape is like the joy of the Japanese "God of Fortune," and it also resembles the dignity of the Buddha.
Although the world's miscellaneous phenomena are like dream bubbles, they always make people fascinated. But Suggarapple blessing is not fascinated by phenomena, and he is not moved by circumstances, either. She hopes that its appearance can neutralize and balance the endless desires of identity, status, power, etc. symbolized by "Thai fighting fish," so that people have the best judgment and choice in the struggle.

New Century Wave
The City Series
2019, 39m×54cm, watercolor, mix media
Break the ancient traditions
Carry forward contemporary ideas.
Create a 21st century Renaissance.
Under the rapid movement of modern society values, when did we lose ourselves? If the essence of big data has its own value and truth, which valuable mask should I be wearing? It is worth thinking about the fact that our human society is about to enter the Renaissance of AI. Where will we be after we break all the old patterns? -

The Camellia and Leopard Series
2017,109cm X 78cm watercolor, Acrylic paint, Glitter
The ‘Blue-Green’ is one of ‘Camellia and Leopard’ series. The deformed leopard, which has more imagination space.
Camellia is one of the top ten famous flowers in China, it’s strong and elegant flowering in winter as a symbol of artist Florence’s brand. Although the leopard advocates the wild nature of freedom, but it is noble. Camellia and leopard conflict characters let them play a love story, just like to waltz.
Can love be tested by the waves? We see the coffin shape in the middle, such as unequal relationship can be easily buried. -
