6-minute documentary "Jin Carrey: I Need Color (Jin Carrey: I Need Color)" tells the story of the American comedy genius and international superstar Jin Carrey, who committed suicide by his girlfriend and suffered from depression, was missing for six years. The story of healing oneself in painting and being interviewed as a painter is a typical example of the success of self-painting therapy.
1. The disappearing comedy god
When it comes to him, people are not unfamiliar. He is the famous comedy king and the "Xing Chi" in the hearts of Americans. Classic comedies such as "Ghost in Disguise", "Fake God", "Dumb and Agua", not only let the audience remember this face, but also made him a rare genius in the history of comedy movies.
he won the 56th "American Golden Globe Best Actor" in one fell swoop with "Trumen's World".
He is Jim Carrey, a walking emoticon, and a happy god who brings joy to people.
Perhaps every genius of comedy shows his most amusing side before others, but bury the pain and loss in his heart, which will explode over time.
From depression and suicide comedy master Robin Williams to Chaplin, Bean...The more you greet you with a smile on the surface, the more alienated you are in your heart. They amused everyone, but they still couldn't understand themselves. Jim Carrey, who is known for his near-crazy performances, is no exception.
Since his 30-year-old girlfriend committed suicide by swallowing medicine in a lawsuit, he has rarely participated in comedy filming, and even rarely appeared in public.
, who carried the coffin for his girlfriend, seemed to be 20 years old overnight. He occasionally appeared on the set. He also suffered from crazy illness and was sent home by the crew.
, the clown who once made fun of the world, seemed to exhaust all his energy but could not laugh anymore. The
entertainment industry has undergone a rapid change from the old to the new. He seems to have long been forgotten by the world without any new works for several years.
It was not until this 6-minute documentary "Jin Carrey: I Need Color" attracted more than 3 million people's attention that he returned to people's field of vision.
This time, he is no longer a comedy genius or an international superstar, but is interviewed as an artist.
Maybe you can’t imagine this clown who is happy in front of others and makes us happy, but in private has endured the torture of depression for many years.
"Emotions should have ups and downs. But my emotional peak seems to have been cut off, and I have been in an endless trough of despair. You have no answer to this despair. On the surface, you are living well, smiling at other people in the office. But the heart has always been in a state of despair."
"The comedy is a mask of Kim Carey in Hollywood's closet, but the face in the mask is still the desperate child from Canada." 2. Painting cured his depression
He confessed his experience of fighting depression in an interview with CBS "60 Points" host Steve Croft.
"At that time six years ago, I had been trying to repair my broken heart. Right now I was thinking, or I would just paint." "When I started painting frequently, I was very addicted and there was no activity at home. Space, there are paintings everywhere, they have become part of the furniture, and I will eat on the paintings."
For him, painting is the only way to express emotions in those poor days.
At his home in New York, he craved a paintbrush and painted in various poses.
lying on his stomach, squatting, standing, he merged with the canvas, pouring the paint to his heart's content. "When you have love in your heart, the turbulence in your heart will decrease."
said frankly in the documentary: through the colors in the paintings, you can see my emotions; from the darkness revealed in some paintings, you can know My daily life. He believes that only in painting can he be free and liberated. Only painting can make him forget something and keep himself calm.
Strong color impact, rich and lively lines, fragmented fantasy, his artistic talent is as strong as comedy talent, vivid and charming. He said, "Painting doesn't teach me anything, it just saves me from the future, from the past, from anxiety, and from regret."
3. Why can painting help people get out of the shadows?
1, "Painting Psychology" tells us: painting itself, as a kind of art therapy, has unique advantages: on the one hand, compared with other treatment methods, painting is more convenient and quicker and has strong maneuverability . And people are born to do graffiti, which is used in almost all places where there are humans;
On the other hand, painting can intoxicate people, increase interest, and give people hope . Jim Carrey said that all his talent for comedy comes from despair; all his talent for painting comes from the gleam of hope that flows deep in his heart. The
painting is not deceiving, because it is real and not artificial, which is particularly moving. Let us see the real Jim Carrey in the paintings. He was crazy, painful, ecstatic, or peaceful, but he never gave up on himself, which allowed himself to be released and healed.
2. The process of painting is a process of venting and expressing emotions, a process of diverting attention, Jin Carrey has been immersed in painting for six years, with no distractions, concentrated energy, deaf ears, and focused attention. In painting creation, painting is used as an outlet to release emotions. It shows that troubles are forgotten, passion is aroused, existence is satisfied, and depression is healed.
This portrait of Jesus is surrounded by golden light. Not only the painter can heal himself, but also the people who admire her can get the warmth and healing like sunlight, because the energy he emits is huge. He said: The energy surrounding Jesus is very strong. I don’t know whether he is real, whether he exists, or what he represents, but I really want to convey Christ consciousness through Jesus’ paintings. I hope you can feel that he accepts you when you look into his eyes. No matter who you are, I hope he can stare at you in the painting and heal you.
I don’t know what painting taught me, I only know that it frees me from the future, the past, regrets, and worries.
3. The sense of accomplishment, completion, joy and satisfaction brought by the creation of brightly colored and perfect works has played a very good healing effect.
"There was a time when I looked around and found that I was in a severe winter in New York, which made me very frustrated, and then I thought, I want color . You can see what I like from the color of the painting, I can see my inner life from the darkness in some paintings, and I can see my yearning from the brightness of some paintings. These things are really cool. What we are doing is serving our subconscious mind, and we also hope that some people can resonate. .
On the other hand, the design of color and composition plays a healing role in perfect painting and self-appreciation. Does the ink-splashing lens have a hearty feeling?
It can be seen from Jin Carrie’s paintings that the colors he used in his paintings are bold and lively, with bright colors and strong contrasts. He clearly feels the openness, open-mindedness and unrestrainedness of his paintings, as if the inner depressed emotions are overwhelming. Pouring out, in this almost rushing paint, who can say that this is not one of the reasons for curing him?

When I was bored, upset, and happy, I painted a picture. Oh, all the unhappiness disappeared when I saw my paintings!
Painting brings a lot of fun to my life. Under my influence, children fall in love with painting and read picture books every day!
