Artist Statement
For me, art is not merely the presentation of form, but a profound expression of human emotions, thoughts, and societal phenomena. It transcends time and space, breaking through the boundaries of language and culture, engaging in a silent dialogue with the audience, becoming a carrier of thought and a resonance of emotions.
In my creations, I always adhere to the belief that art should possess both inspiration and emotional depth. Through visual language, I strive to present the connection between traditional culture and contemporary society, conveying the power of culture in an intuitive and emotionally moving way. Design is not just aesthetics—it’s a powerful conversation that invites emotional connection and thought-provoking engagement.
Visual language is my voice to the world, a constant pursuit of emotional resonance and intellectual reflection.
