My works are most of representational, some are abstracts as objects as lights floated in a space in silence, or a frozened land scape, the view beyound window with rain drops. Either abstract or representational, I aim to depict the atmosphere of the confined space, naturally composed and naturally existing objects in my works. It is a most important for my works, because I hope that my works will become a window of healing to calm one’s mind.
