From a Single Breath of Ten Thousand Transformations to a Single Breath of Ten Thousand Miles: On Two States of Breathing in Bing Yi's Art 从一息万变到一息万里， 论冰逸作品中的两种呼吸状态
Yi Bing (Bing-Yi HUANG) 黄冰逸
Yong YOU
The article takes the concept of breathing in Daoist philosophy as a main point to evaluate Artist Bing Yi’s art. Through the detailed analysis of the artwork, the writer found that rather than constantly refining the realism of the imagery, the artist seeks the most essential vitality from the inner self and nature. She has forged her own path by using ink to present the inherent breath and rhythm of each object. Also, the artwork is accompanied by links to website descriptions of the specific works.

Anecdote (轶事)
Huan ZHANG 張洹
This document contains an anecdote from the artist where he explains the time he climbed into a large metal box located inside his apartment and got hopelessly stuck. It was nighttime and he was all alone. He could only see from a tiny hole in the box just large enough for him to be able to stick out his arm. He reflected on how he at the time mainly communicated with friends by cellphone or BP machine. After many minutes of struggle and screaming for help, a neighbor came to open the box lid. After his frightening entrapment, he felt the true meaning of freedom after escaping the box. He felt that money and women are not needed, and only freedom instead. In the anecdote, he exclaims that he experienced the mindset of people between life and death and understood that life is worth cherishing. After being freed he immediately called his friends and told them about his experience and how people need help to live. He ends the anecdote by saying he never wanted to encounter the box again after that night. (Nicole Wang '26).
