description:
The application of Chinese cultural symbols is often the key to determining my own artistic identity in cross-cultural context. Dialogue at the cultural and spiritual level is central to my work such as using the eastern paper-cutting tradition -- the positive and negative spaces' unity of opposites -- every little part is being cut off to support and form a new whole picture. They are Yin (dark) and Yang (bright) but also complementary, interconnected and interdependent with each other.
