“The Natural Flow Meets Art”

“Echoing the Buddhist philosophy of ‘impermanence’, what we see may not be true and forever. What we need to present is part of the truth from nature and the other part is interpretation of the truth of nature. It is like Wabi Sabi’s aesthetic, ‘Beauty in imperfection’. Maybe the Imperfection is a perfection. 

My artistic endeavors aim to delve into the realms between reality and chaotic abstraction. Watercolor serves as a medium through which color is liberated to meander, giving rise to unbridled images, be they reminiscent of clouds, flower-laden ponds, or other enigmatic forms. In the interplay, ink lines weave through the colors, and, at this juncture, I strive to assume the role of a mere observer, envisioning the myriad stories that unfold without the imposition of predetermined control.”
