Orange Dog & Flowers Painting

linktr.ee/imashin Art-making is a thought process, dialogues with myself, and mindfulness. It is a journey accompanied by serendipity. I hope to see something unseen and have new encounters. I also try to find pieces of personal mythology from my everyday life, my memories, and my inner world. I strongly hope that the images of my artworks stimulate the viewer’s imagination and mix with their everyday life, and sometimes even disrupt it. These images are open to any interpretation so that the viewers can create their own unique stories, which may eventually develop into their lifelong memories. The ambiguity and enigma of my artworks are preserved intact and refuse to present any simplistic answers. I try to create images full of rich and miscellaneous questions that are open to many interpretations. I try not to stick too much to my cultural background and other attributes, for I might miss the emergence of the unseen in front of my eyes in the journey of looking for something unseen and new encounters if I am too conscious of preconceived ideas about myself. I continue this journey, reflecting on the dynamic and chaotic development of many different cultures and how each culture has gained its uniqueness and maturity through its tremendous cross-cultural influences, confluences, and exchanges over a long history.
