Jim Holland

Jim Holland1957年出生于美国纽约，从小便对绘画产生了极大的兴趣。

他最喜爱的艺术家是爱德华霍珀。

不同于霍珀的是，他的作品呈现的是光与空间之中隐存的寂静，而非无声的孤独。

丹麦艺术家哈默修依一生也在描绘喧嚣之中的那份宁静，

但Jim Holland的作品中从不会出现任何人物，他只画静物和风景。

Jim Holland的作品不禁让人想到聂鲁达那首著名的诗——《我喜欢你是寂静的》，

虽然聂鲁达献给的是自己的爱人，但毫无疑问，

这份爱就像Jim Holland作品所诠释的那种氛围和感觉一样，宁静而悠远。

I like for you to be still
我喜欢你是寂静的

I like for you to be still， it is as though you were absent,

我喜欢你是寂静的，仿佛你消失了一样，

and you hear me from far away， and you voice does not touch you.

你从远处聆听我，我的声音却无法触及你。

It seems as though your eyes had flown away

好像你的双眼已经飞离远去。

and it seems that a kiss had sealed your mouth.

如同所有的事物充满了我的灵魂，

As all things are filled with my soul

你从所有的事物中浮现，

you emerge from the things, filled my soul.

充满了我的灵魂

You are like my soul, a butterfly of dream,

你像我的灵魂，一只梦的蝴喋，

and you are like the word Melancholy.

你如同忧郁这个字

I like for you to be still， and you seem far away.

我喜欢你是寂静的，好像你已远去。

It sounds as though you were lamenting, a butterfly cooinglike a dove.

你听起来像在悲叹，一只如同鸽悲鸣的蝴蝶。

And you hear me from far away and you voice does not rouch you:

你从远处听见我，我的声音无法企及你：

Let me come to be still in your silence.

让我在你的沉默中安静无声。

And let me talk to you with your silence

并且让我借你沉默与你说话，

that is brightas a lamp,simple as a ring.

你的沉默明亮如灯，简单如指环。

You are like the night, with it\'s stillness and constellations.

你就像黑夜，拥有寂静与群星。

Your silence is that of a star, as remore and candid.

你沉默就是星星的沉默，遥远而明亮。

I like for you to be still， it is as though you were absent,

我喜欢你是寂静的，仿佛你消失了一样，

distant anf fullof sorrow as though you had died.

遥远而且哀伤，仿佛你已经死了。

One word then,one smile,is enough.

彼时，一个字，一个微笑，已经足够。

And I am happy, happy that it\'s not true.

而我会觉得幸福 ， 因那不是真的
