“Departure”  is a work extremely rich in tension, as it explores the visualization of      Eastern philosophy. The surface of the work is covered with strong  collisions of red marks that go off in their own directions and interweave in  layers. A dynamic visual structure is created, as if the interior of the  painting is undergoing simultaneous     tearing, conflict and fusion. The overall image appears split up but is  actually reaching an internal cohesion—this kind of “combined force within  dislocation” encompasses the investigative line of thinking the artist takes  on in contemplating the relationship between “departure” and “unity.”

《离》是一幅极富张力的作品,也是对东方哲学视觉化的一次深刻探索。作品表面布满强烈对撞的红色刻痕,方向各异、层层交错,形成一种动态的视觉结构,仿佛内部正在经历撕裂、冲突与融合的过程。整体图像看似分裂,实则内聚——这种“错动中的合力”,正是艺术家对“离”与“合”的辩证思考。
