Catalogue Note
The way that I look at art is not to impose my vision but to expose the vision of the medium. The material I use is of traditional Chinese painting. The paper is made from sandalwood, mulberry, or bamboo fibers so the paper itself is quite strong. But what is special is that water can go through the paper without ruining it. This is what I like to refer to as material as agent. Water flowing over and through a surface is like the interactions between solid and fluid forms. In my work, I am not trying to control the water, but to find its flow with its own meaning.
