贾靖早期的作品大多描绘一些与战争相关的场景。艺术家对战争的敏感与其说是呈现其带给人类的巨大苦难,毋宁说是想通过战争揭露人类无意识层面所潜藏的暴力行径。贾靖近期的作品在题材上出现了新的变化,其主题逐渐远离了战争,远离了暴力,但即便如此,艺术家仍希望将暴力虚化为一种倾向于唯美的图景。然而,在贾靖的作品中,这些图像是片段的、破碎化的,虽然它们不能成为现实生活的镜像,但似乎又与周遭的现实体验契合。同时,各种文字的出现不仅增强了画面的图式特征,也与图像形成了一种互文关系。如果这些图像代表着偶然、随意的话,那么这些文字则是理性、规则的象征,它们相互砥砺与渗透,形成了一种多义的画面空间。

Most of the early works of jia jing describe the scenes related to wars.The artists'sensitivity to wars is not only because they want to present the great miseries the wars bring to the human beings,but also because they wish to reveal the violence hidden in the unconsciousness of human beings through the wars.Recently,new changes have taken piace in the theme of jiajing's works,the topics of which are gradually far away from wars and violence.And in spite of this,the artists still hope to turn violence into an almost aesthetic picture .In Jia Jing's paintings,however,the images are fragmented and broken .Though they cannot become the mirror of real life,they seem to agree with the experience of
reality around them.Meanwhile,the appearance of various characters and letters not only strengthens the pictorial features of the painting,but also forms intextuality with images .
If the images represent coincidence and randomness,then the characters and letters stand for
reason and rules.They cultivate and infiltrate each other,forming a space with multiple meanings in the paintings.
