Abstract:
During the old days in the orient, people used to wipe cymbidium leaves or painted cymbidium for mental training by having a cymbidium always by their side. Through the act of wiping cymbidium leaves with utmost care, a cymbidium instilled with ancient philosophical ideas is visualized, and just as God breathed life into human nostrils and created a living life form, if a breath is breathed into a cymbidium flower, a cymbidium flower with an excellent fragrance is visualized. This work is an interactive visualization of an oriental cymbidium using modern technology which our oriental ancestors painted for mental training.
