《自然物》这一系列作品，恰如其名称所提示的，具有很强的“物”的特征，从蒙德里安、马列维奇等早期抽象绘画的平面构成方式来看，《自然物》同样具备20世纪早期现代派的某些基本元素，可以作为一幅绘画——特别是现代主义绘画来看待，但同时我们也可以说，这批作品以某一种方式远离了绘画，更加接近物质——或者说物质所展示的意识与观念本身。

The series of ‘Natural Material’, as its name suggests, has a strong feature of ‘OBJECTS’ . From the perspective of the plane composition in early abstract paintings by Mondrian, Malevich and others, ‘Natural Material’ also has the basic elements of early modernism in the 20th century. It can be seen as a painting - especially a modernist painting. At the same time, we can also say that this series of works is far from paintings in a certain way, but closer to the object - or consciousness and concepts themselves presented by the objetct.

孙策在《自然物》这个系列中，他所要展现的不是一种基于形象与可见自然的一种模仿，而是要建立一个有关意识的游戏。在创作发生论上，《自然物》主要使用了现代绘画的媒介材质，即构成油画布的麻布。不同尺寸、比例、粗细、色彩的麻布方块，既作为绘画的基底，同时也作为构成画面的元素，取代了传统绘画的“笔触”，成为“笔触”本身。这些“方块”或者说被渲染过的麻布，直接构成了绘画的视觉元素与逻辑单元。我们仔细观察孙策在这批创作中的方法论和创作过程，就会发现这批作品有着与西方现代主义抽象绘画迥异的思考逻辑与审美倾向。这批绘画展示了一种抽离了现实世界的语言系统，基于“物”与“思”的高度凝练的艺术词表。

In the series of ‘Natural Material’, Sun Ce wants to build a game about consciousness rather than an imitation based on image and visible nature. In Creation Generative Theory, ‘Natural Material’ mainly uses the basic material in Modernist Paintings - linen that makes up the canvas. Linen squares of different sizes, proportions, thicknesses and colors, used as the base of the paintings and the elements that make up the picture. Instead of the ‘brushstrokes’ in traditional painting, it becomes the ‘brushstrokes’ itself. These ‘squares’, the dyed linen directly constitute the visual elements and logical units of the paintings. If we observe Sun Ce's methodology and process in the creation of these works, we will find that these works have very different logic and aesthetic tendencies from Western modernist abstract paintings. These paintings show a highly condensed artistic vocabulary based on ‘object’ and ‘thought’, which is separated from the language system of the real world.
