About the artwork

The cool blue Hong spreads across the canvas emanates a sense of serenity and wistfulness, encouraging viewers to enter a calm and meditative state of mind. The columns of quick calligraphic strokes imbue the work with a sense of spirited movement, creating the impression of the painting’s layers continuously emerging and receding from the forefront - the sense of movement being a defining characteristic of traditional Chinese painting. Yet this movement is balanced by the three strong vertical lines on the right of the painting, which exude stability and fortitude. Hong Zhu An wields his brush fearlessly as he charts new artistic territory, creating works that are innovative and pulse with artistic depth.
