The Classic of Mountains and Seas (Shan Hai Jing) is an ancient Chinese text dating back over two millennia, serving as an epic compendium of mythic geography, cosmic balance, and legendary beasts. In this series, I breathe new life into these primordial myths through the meticulous and transformative medium of contemporary paper-cutting and 'Louhui' (engraved painting).
Beyond a mere historical showcase, this series reinterprets ancient Eastern philosophy through a modern global lens. Each piece acts as a dimensional layer of storytelling. By carving out negative spaces and allowing light to interact with the raw textures of paper, I transform traditional craftsmanship into a universal visual language. The series explores the eternal connection between humanity, nature, and the cosmos, inviting international viewers to step into a realm where ancient myth meets contemporary fine art.
