Shuma／陳書怡

作品擅長以自行發想的角色帶入架空的奇幻世界為舞台，透過對於現實社會的觀察，來間接描繪對世界的觀點。

也因為從小迷戀漫畫裡各種線條描繪出的世界，在作品中，透過顏料的堆疊和畫筆的刷痕，去映照心中當下整理情緒的過程，記錄著自我的審思及對所處的各種社會氛圍下的心情。

A Taiwanese-American artist currently based in Texas, USA, engaged in artistic creation and exhibiting worldwide.

Co-authored “Art Lessons from My Daughter's Paintings ”with her father, scheduled for publication in September 2024 by Move-Go Creative Co..

Her works often feature original characters set in imagined, fantastical worlds, using observations of real-life society to indirectly express personal perspectives on the world.

Having been fascinated by the expressive power of lines in comics since childhood, they use layered pigments and visible brushstrokes to reflect emotional processing in the moment, recording self-reflection and responses to various social atmospheres.

「粉紅貓因轉念而巨大」系列1 With a change of mind, the pink cat became enormous

小貓因萬物對她產生的信賴，讓她充滿了愛逐漸變成微笑大貓，這條路上的荊棘感覺上變得愈來愈小，花朶愈開愈大愈美，藍天也更明朗，希望更加無窮。Shuma描述的這種對應，很有行動力，也很有幸福感，在大家的努力下，很多困難最後都可解決，希望人類要特別加油。

Because all living things trusted the little cat, she became filled with love and gradually turned into a smiling big cat. The thorns along her path seemed to grow smaller and smaller, the flowers bloomed bigger and more beautifully, and the blue sky became even brighter——hope became boundless. The kind of interaction Shuma described is full of action and a sense of happiness. With everyone’s efforts, many difficulties can eventually be resolved. Let’s hope humanity puts in extra effort.

金晨之鯨 The Golden Dawn Whale

Shuma畫的極地早晨特別美，鯨魚、企鵝、魚類們共度美好的一天，人類看了這奇景應該也很觸動。Shuma真的管很大，她的創作永遠不限地域、物種、生活方式，希望地球萬物能和平相處。

Shuma's depiction of a polar morning is especially beautiful—whales, penguins, and fish spend a wonderful day together. Humans who witness this magnificent scene would surely be moved. Shuma truly takes on a vast scope; her creations are never limited by region, species, or way of life. She hopes that all living beings on Earth can coexist peacefully.
