"Cycle-Spring" Painting

I currently reside in Shanghai and have a background in architectural design. I have long been active in the fields of architectural design, painting, and contemporary art. Years of spatial practice and continuous artistic exploration have shaped my personal visual language, one that integrates structural awareness, spatial perception, and poetic expression. As an experienced artist, I consistently explore the intrinsic relationships between space, time, nature, and the spiritual world, while continuously investigating the contemporary possibilities of painterly language through cross-media artistic practice.

My work primarily employs oil paint, acrylic, and mixed media, merging the painterly sensibility of modern abstract expressionism with the spiritual dimension of traditional Eastern aesthetics. Between figuration, imagery, and abstraction, I construct an open and tension-filled visual field. My practice does not aim at objective representation; rather, through the interplay of color, material language, textural construction, and spatial layering, I build poetic landscapes that exist between external reality and inner perception.

My architectural background has endowed me with a refined sensitivity to space and structural thinking, while the ink-wash spirit, concepts of emptiness and fullness, and Zen philosophy of traditional Chinese culture serve as essential spiritual dimensions of my practice. Natural landscapes, shifting light and shadow, and subtle sensations from everyday experience are transformed into symbolic visual imagery. Through the flow of brushstrokes, the accumulation and dissolution of color layers, and their permeation and interaction, I create an open, multilayered, and contemplative spiritual field.

My works emphasize the materiality of painting and experimentation with media, focusing on the accumulation and erosion of pigment, the emergence of texture, and the subtle yet complex relationships between colors. The pictorial space maintains a dynamic balance between order and freedom, control and chance, simultaneously revealing the expressive tension of contemporary abstract painting and the restraint, tranquility, and sense of time characteristic of Eastern art.

For me, painting is not only the creation of visual form but also an ongoing practice of perception, memory, and spirituality.
