Artist Statement:
This image series is an ongoing project inspired by the work of legendary filmmaker Jordan Belson. The spiritual and sensual experience of viewing Belson’s profound abstract films and images, touched me with the kind of cosmic sense that a person of Chinese descent grows up with, bringing out my own inner image of a connected universe in various forms, ancient and modern.
After making realistic 30 modeling animation work with high-tech computer systems for quite a few years, I find myself eager to pursue work of more aesthetic and spiritual experience, to explore the power of abstract expression in visual art.
