It always begins with a stir
No one really knows why
Perhaps it starts with a thought
Follows by restlessness
Which becomes intent
Then it surges and dances
It always begins with a stir…

心 Heart Variation 1 2025
Acrylic on canvas
30 x 40 inches

As an image appears there are many possibilities how it will manifest as a painting. It is a process of choosing the medium, the technique, colour combinations, the size of the canvas, etc .. As a series of decisions are made, there’s a lingering feeling, pondering and imagining the different outcome if the other possibility was chosen instead. So out of this tugging feeling, a variation is born. This piece is a variation of the earlier work using another style. A style which has been urging me to reveal itself.

I asked myself what this word means to me. The answer is not words but the sound of the first heart beats of my children from the ultrasound scan. It means the beginning. Each heart beat is a new moment of beginning. What does this word mean to you?

Geometric shapes have always interest me. The construction of this piece is based on Fibonacci sequence. I’m amazed how nature is able to create mathematically derived shapes. There is order and harmony in the randomness.

Heart

Delicate as a flower
Strong as steel
A new beginning
In every beat

My visit to a champagne cellar inspired this painting of the eternal Mobius strips. The circles represent thousands of horizontally stacked champagne bottles hidden from the outside world. The mystical Mobius strips signify endless energy, the perpetuation of the dream of the founder and the continuation of legacy and tradition.

Mesmerized by the vastness
Awed by the depth
To feel the embrace
To hear the flutters
Glide through the unknown

Flow

Are you intrigued by the interconnectedness of life?
While each of us has our own path,
we also encounter and coincide with numerous others
Do you wonder about the entanglement of life?
How each of us affects the others,
depends on another, be there for each other
Can you feel…the flow~?

The colours of this piece are inspired by 千里江山圖 (A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains) by 王希孟 (Wang Ximeng) painted during the Song Dynasty (宋朝 960-1279) which was a time of prosperity and advancement. It uses the blue-green shan shui (青綠山水) Chinese painting style with blues and greens as main colours using the scarce mineral pigments azurite and malachite to depict the peaceful and prosperous country. This masterpiece by Wang Ximeng is one of the ten most famous Chinese paintings in history (中國十大名畫) and is in the permanent collection of the Palace Museum in Beijing.
