“This show is a return trip to my paintings of past years, a bit like revisiting a once-familiar place. At the same time, it seems to me that I am professing my love once again.
Painting scenery on canvas is a kind of mental excursion. My work, as an ambiguous spiritual space, is not the interpretation of landscape in the real world. Dynamic imaginations of constantly changing rhythms are shaped by the visual effects, imagery and sentiments.
Most of my works in the 2000s include small figures and things that can be found in daily life, such as chairs and windows, flowers and insects, but the background shows patterns of motion interwoven with layers of colour and brush strokes. The boundaries between indoor and outdoor are blurred, and a sense of chaotic space gradually appears.”
