曾經，我在 悲傷、 孤獨、 渴望愛的時刻，想起了你。如今，在黎明時分，當我在散步、穿上新衣、觀看新電影、翻看菜單、在酒吧喝酒、在工作室工作、在黑暗中體驗人生的煩惱與快樂時，你依然存在。

林韋瑄

在《每日我都在為愛祈禱》中，林韋瑄通過女性視角探索了思緒、情感、性與死亡，並展現了她戀愛關係中的各種面向。此次展覽展示了一系列在這些親密瞬間的本質與普遍真理之間來回穿梭的繪畫作品，並在純粹的敘事中探索了如何以奢華的技法與精細的美學，提供一種感知體驗，揭示親密關係的狀態。

透過疊加技法，林韋瑄激發了觀眾調整對不同距離物體焦點的能力，以適應不同距離的物體，並將多個碎片化的敘事聚集在一起，仿佛在其錯綜複雜中，觀眾的目光在一個片段與另一個片段之間游移，並形成一個連貫的整體。半透明與不透明的表面並置，創造出光與影、堅實與流動、透明與幻象之間的對比，揭示出關係的矛盾本質。林韋瑄運用她獨特的技法來描繪程式化、視覺上複雜的元素， 終強化了各種具象元素之間的振盪效果，讓它們似乎在畫面空間中交替凸顯與消隱，從而使畫面顯得高度模糊且極具迷惑性。

Everyday I Pray for Love

“I used to think about you when I was at my saddest, most lonely, and most desperate for love. Now, at dawn, when I am walking, wearing new clothes, watching new movies, looking at menus, drinking in bars, working in my studio, experiencing both the troubles and joys of stories in the dark, your thoughts still find me.” -Iris WeiShuan Lin

In Everyday I Pray for Love, Lin explores thoughts, emotions, sexuality, and death through a female perspective on various facets of her romantic relationships. The exhibition showcases a collection of paintings that oscillate between the essence of these intimate moments and where universal truths call to her pure narratives, the exploration of how luscious technique and refined aesthetic offer a perceptual experience that exposes the condition of an intimate relationship.

Through superimposition, Lin triggered the viewers’ natural ability to adjust their focus in relation to objects at different distances, and multiple fragmented narratives brought together as if in its intricacies, with the viewers’ gaze wandering from one fragment to another within being able to form a coherent whole. The translucent and opaque surfaces are juxtaposed so as to create the contrast between light and shadow, solidity and fluidity, and transparency and illusion to bring up the paradoxical essence of the relationship, deploying her unique technique to depict the programmatic, visually complex, and ultimately reinforce the effect of oscillation between various figuration elements, and appear to alternatively protrude from and recede into the pictorial space, which is thus rendered highly ambiguous and profoundly disorienting.­
