Mixed Media Calligraphy
My work is inspired by classical Asian literature, and explores the confluence and entanglement of tangible and intangible, flowing energy.
Natural Brushstrokes in the Cosmos of Flowers and Birds

As an artist, I seek to weave an intricate tapestry of meaning and spirit through the art of calligraphy. My work bridges the timeless essence of classical East Asian calligraphic traditions with the boundless potential of Western and modern creative mediums. Each stroke I create is not merely an expression of form, but a manifestation of dynamic change and movement—a poetry of flowing energy that captures the confluence of the tangible and intangible.
Using traditional calligraphic materials as my foundation, I allow my imagination to construct unique visual spectacles that emerge from the depths of my mind. Each piece is created by hand in real life through multiple steps and layers of calligraphy and painting, and then I complete the final piece as mixed media artworks. My calligraphic final works are presented in Fine Art Edition (Giclée), preserving the texture, depth and strength of the unique creation.
These works are inspired by the elegance of natural brushstrokes and the vitality of the living cosmos, evoking a sense of harmony between the organic and the abstract. Through this process, I aim to create art that resonates with the viewer, inviting them into a space where the boundaries of culture, medium, and meaning dissolve into a shared experience of beauty and transformation.My calligraphy is a living dialogue between past and present, tradition and innovation, energy and stillness. It is my way of expressing the ever-changing rhythm of life and the interconnectedness of all things.
