Zhuangzi Butterfly Dream
21 × 30cm
The ancient Zhuang Zhou Dream Butterfly. Kochoya. Self metaphor suitable.
In May, I saw a black swallowtail butterfly fluttering in the garden and was reminded of this poem.
When I come across a poem or word that I resonate with, I naturally feel motivated to create something.
I want to create while cherishing my honest desire to express myself.
Ding Jingshen, Twelve Quatrains on India: "The wickedness of the sick reveals the iron in the liver and intestines"

I was attracted to the expressionism of the Zhejiang school of seal carving, a school of the Qing dynasty, and used it as reference for my work.
I realized how difficult it is to create a rich impression using simple, thin lines.
We are also preparing to exhibit our seal carvings at the Soho Festival, which will be held in November.
