本創作論述欲從水的現象中的「起伏意象」與筆者個人「內在思緒」探究兩者之關聯。經由檢視與定義何謂「水」的存在，來發掘潛藏在創作中的「潛在意識」，將兩者在造型與內涵上做比對，從探討過程中尋找創作靈感，篩選出適合的元素進行主題式的創作。本論述內容共有五個篇章。第一章作為緒論，說明整體創作發想與主要內容，說明創作範圍的選擇，以及從何種面向切入議題；第二章為文獻探討，討論主題關注的面向，並旁徵博引，解析各個議題的主要特質與關聯；第三章則為創作過程與實踐，說明主題探索過程與創作實踐過程；第四章為創作系列分析，說明期望的結果與實際呈現；最後，第五章為結語與展望。

內容說明以何種邏輯將論述對象精煉為「水的起伏」意象，以此來體現「水」的本質中的一小部分，對此做深入分析討論，並以文獻研究分析與參考其他藝術家之創作方式，統整所得的心得與理論基礎，嘗試建立個人論述的觀點，再經由個人觀察以及對水的想像，透過造型與色彩之表現創作，將水的起伏意象與個人內在思緒作連結，分析作品外在形式所呈現出的筆者內在思緒。理論探討之外，以實際創作的方式體現本論述關注之議題，嘗試以更精確之創作語彙來表現筆者之心境，期望透過創作來更加瞭解自己內心隱藏的思緒。最後藉由對核心議題的思考與發現，提供在創作表達與觀看方式上的突破，從人們習以為常的現象中發掘不同的可能性，進而在思考物與人、人與世界，於存在本質的議題上能有新的見解。

The discourse is going to discover the imagery of “water waves”, otherwise the “mental state” of the discusser will be analyzed. Then, finding the connections between two issues is included. As surveying the existence of water, the definition of the imagery of water is considered. Moreover, the course of creating artworks is expected to reveal the phenomenon of the unconscious which belongs to the discusser. The theme aims to arrange the logistics for the imagery of water waves to relate with the personal consciousness. The first chapter is the introduction which narrates the core of the discourse, explaining how were the ideas chosen and developed. In addition, the limitations and the aspects regarding the discussion included. The second chapter is the literature review, containing related theories, the artists and the works. The third chapter has illustrated the creation process, medium and the skills. The fourth chapter is the analysis trying to collect and organize the series of works, otherwise reviewing the ultimate achievements to compare with the expectations. The fifth chapter is the concluding remarks.

The content of the discourse will explain the reasons why the theme has narrowed to the “water waves” from “water”, moreover, the relation between the imagery of water waves and the human mind will be discussed. The discusser is trying to build up the concepts to narrate the existence of water and the influence water brings to one’s mind. The assumption is about the interaction of the outside world with the interior mind. Since the facts and theories have been deduced, the discusser explored the mind of his own, and furthermore by means of the creation of art works, the connections with imagery of water waves and one’s mind have tried to apply to the creation process. In addition, by creating the works in plastic arts, the discusser is trying to refine the expression of his own art style, moreover, the process is a way to discover the internal of one’s mind himself. In concluding, the theme of the discourse aims to provide a different way to express the emotions in arts, also, the discussions and the implementations in the discourse are expected to make a breakthrough in the interactions between humans and the natural world, finding the possibilities of outlooks on the phenomenon that people get used to.
