Hong Kong, Chee-mun Yung, Swamp, Ink & Colour On Paper, 140 x 70cm Each

Yung focuses on ink painting. The creative concept behind his landscape painting is to hold together the classical philosophy of the ancient Chinese scholars’ use of ink. He pursues the philosophy inspired by Du Fu’s poetry : 水流心不競,雲在意俱遲.

His works integrate this invisible spirit into the landscape, turning the turmoil of real life into a world of quiet and serenity. He uses Eastern and Western art materials and techniques to create his own rich colourful paintings imbued with a sense of Chinese fusion. His landscapes depict a fairy tale – like Chinese utopia based on natural scenes from his recalled memory.
