Artist Statement
-
In the process of making a torn paper painting, more skills and adjustments are required with larger paper. It’s not just about the innocent liberty of tearing the paper as one pleases. It’s also about mastering the skills of tearing gradually. Finally, I found it – dissect ink painting is not a kind of static art. In the dynamic process of “dissecting” while making a piece of dissect ink painting, the elements of time and speed are just so charming.
I put the unique features of ink and wash painting in the eastern culture in dissect ink painting. Every piece I ever made is a reflection of my personal journey of living this life and being reborn.
