Artist’s Statement
My painting has the theme of meeting East and West, adding Western material and colors to the Oriental beauty of Black and White.
The White color symbolizes cleanliness. and the black represents my improvisational feeling and movement. Decorated with the style and color of Western art, the harmony of East and Western beauty was expressed.
Through my paintings, I want to let people know that there is no longer a boundary between East and West in contemporary art.
