Lu Jun’s ethereal images create illusory landscapes, which are at once historical references to centuries of shui mo hua and dynamic, abstract works. His conceptual use of space is calm, each of his works holding a sense of suspended balance. Threads of traced movement create entirely new compositions that are worlds unto themselves. Calligraphies bloom and pour through the centuries of this latest abstract series.
Lu Jun is a contemporary artist working with digital photographic techniques His new works revisit Chinese history and painting through the use of abstract composition.
