The concept behind the works is ‘Ma’ that the intentional interval or gap; Ma is not merely a physical space or a temporal pause, it is a profound concept that nurtures sensibility, meaning, and inner depth within emptiness. Ma refers to the invisible, the unspeakable, and the subtle presence of kehai (atmosphere) or the flow of ki (energy). Space is perceived only in relation to time flow, not separate. Space is filled with infinite potential.
Trying to draw/capture more feeling rather than some concrete imaginations which are already in our minds. Without any interpretations, and transfer to viewer.
Drawing inspiration from nature, spirituality, and the human condition, I wish, the works evoke a profound sense of tranquility, inviting viewers to embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery.
