How should humans and nature live in harmony? My work is an endless attempt to answer this question. I try to find a way to express Eastern philosophy in abstract painting. Taoism proposes that the universe operates harmoniously in its own way. In my works, all elements are meant to explore the balance between humans and nature: the shape and surface of the human body, the cells and organs, and the micro-creatures (viruses and bacteria) that can impact functions of the human body. I represent unpredictable, random combinations of cells by pouring paint. The blending of colors, the natural textures, and superimposition of patterns all represent the organic world, beyond our will and control. The central shape on the canvas is like the shelter of our homes, like a window on cultural exchanges, like a breast, cultivating generations, like a human face from a god's-eye view, a symbol of human civilization.
