Description
This work was created over the period from 2021 to 2024 and is based on the precious work "Fairies" (百妖图). Instead of using traditional black ink painting, she created using the woodcut technique. The artist gives the form a sense of life and movement by using flowing and organic lines. The dense dots gradually shift from light to dark and from sparse to concentrated, creating a subtle visual rhythm. The image seems alive and breathing rather than still. It presents an organic form that exists somewhere between landscapes. (Angela Tan 28')
