「我认为，呼吸是我剥除所有名词之后，所剩下唯一的动词。」-- 刘永仁  

家刘永仁的绘画，自1996年开始，便专注聚焦在「呼」与「吸」之间所堆叠出的宇宙中。对他来说，呼吸是最原始、最简单，却也是最复杂、奥妙之事，在气息的吐纳之中，他发现了两个介质的对话与交流，其中的无限可能，促使他在往后的艺术转化过程中，从物理上的概念衍生至精神上的实践，持续探讨着宇宙中「呼吸」的思想、空间和精神意义。  

"Breathing" is the most basic activity we engage in as living creatures. When we stop doing it for just a few minutes, we die. As a necessary function for human beings, "Breathing" can be a phenomenon that has been reviewed for a very long time. As mentioned by art critic Jean-Yves Liao, "Discussion surrounding breathing could be science, philosophy, literature, or art." Since 1996, Liú Yung-Jen's work has been largely focused on the space between breaths. To him , breathing is the most primitive and simplest, but also the most complicated and subtle thing, in which he discovers endless possibilities during the interaction between the two media and urges him to continuously discuss the thoughts, space and spiritual meanings between breaths from spiritual practices that derive from physical concepts in his later artistic transformation.
