Painting is merely the lecture, while ink wash is like the Chinese language itself.

Art creation, according to my view, is an experimental activity of mind. In my view, all such experiment has nothing to do with contemporary art. As for “Experimental Ink Wash”, this outdated concept might be possibly misleading; hence, I would like to entitle my ink wash conversely as “Ink Wash Experiments”.

I am not extremely patriotic, but love to appreciate the deep root of our culture, and consider myself a person of the world.

Ink wash is like language, as well as a position. It is supposed to express and respond to the contemporary, rather than merely to satisfy a game.

Modernism crashes the form in every aspect, then everything in the world becomes the vocabulary for us to use. As a result, whatever you wanted to do might turn out to be incorrect, especially in today’s world when everything is supposed to be OK. The measure of art seems to be manipulated forever by those who possess the divinity.

Fine art is supposed to be fine idea that finds fine form, further changing form into idea.

Globalization is a process of penetration, just like the Confucius Institute is establishing all over the world, as I also write Lun Yu, the Confucius Analects, into the star spangled banner by ink wash.

In art, it may not be necessary to translate Chinese into foreign language by describing the oriental realm, further we ought to deliver our point of view and stance about the world and today directly by using Chinese language.

My learning character brick is, in fact, to commemorate the ancestor, exposing naturally through my figure, as a historical antique born in life.

Art, at such liberation in these times, in its excessive pursuit of style, is quite suspicious; if it comes out of sincerity, it might be rabid, or it could be wretched as well. As style is subject to boundaries, it changes itself into a narrow cage. Indeed, everyone has the destiny of boundaries; we do not need to design a cage for the self in order to gain profit.

As for artists, everything could be the word, and art creation is just like making a sentence by using the words.

Colliding with today is a stance, an action, as well as the artistic destiny to us. We form the world with our different backgrounds which we carry along with us, so collision is an inevitable theme.
