About the artwork

空山新雨后,天气晚来秋。 明月松间照,清泉石上流。 竹喧归浣女,莲动下渔舟。 随意春芳歇,王孙自可留。 Wang Wei is a famous poet and artist from the Tang Dynasty. He had composed an extensive collection of 400 poems that are heavily influenced by Zen Buddhism, books, art and music. His poems exude strong artistic qualities while his paintings carry poetic qualities. This piece by Lim Tze Peng can be thought the same where every line, space, and attractive force in between was carefully considered, creating a masterpiece with every stroke.
