Imagination of Infinity 21-6 Painting

I work to create spatial depth and illusion by drawing repeated lines. The act of endless drawing is done as a way of practice, dance, and meditation. I repeat the overlapping strokes by connecting spirals with drawing materials, such as graphite and colored pencils, along with oil or acrylic paints. I start by drawing thinly and softly, and continue to build up. In this way, a space as deep as the universe is created on the plane. The hidden and immanent images created by the intersection of lines become tens of thousands of shapes through the viewer's eyes. They carry multidimensional meanings, which my paintings expand. The reason for repeatedly drawing curves is the discovery of new images and a spiritual leap beyond technological development. The spirals look like repetitive circular motions, but at a new starting point they represent a dialectic that goes up one step. Cubes also appear frequently in my paintings. They sometimes take the form of a self-portrait. However, the hexahedron symbolizes a future that has not yet been revealed. It looks transparent, but you cannot see what is inside. My actions are like a meditation between the conscious and the unconscious. Although engaged in contemplation, my mind is always awake during the whole process. The position, rhythm, force, and speed of the line have sensitive standards that are set at every moment. I create a dimension of time and space that is as infinite as the universe, I imagine swimming in it, and draw lines on the canvas in free play. Envisioning a greater time and space beyond the unknown depths of the sea or huge rugged mountains is a longing for freedom. Finite human beings experience the freedom of infinity through imagination. As I draw a line, I picture myself flying toward infinity like Zhuangzi’s Peng bird, soaring thousands of feet on a single flap of wings.
