Female Form

  • East to West

    Having moved to Paris two years ago, this work reflects my personal journey from the East to the West. In this piece, I reinterpreted the composition of Leonardo da Vinci’s Madonna Litta. The two windows, a motif of the Renaissance, act as bridges between distinct worlds: the architectural elegance of the Place des Vosges and the serenity of a Japanese garden. These openings symbolize the transition between the exterior surroundings and my internal mental landscape.

    At the heart of this scene is tea—a bond that has historically linked the Orient and the Occident. Since its origins in China over 2,000 years ago, tea culture traced a long journey across Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. More than just a beverage, it represents a shared history that brings distant cultures together. In East to West, the act of preparing tea becomes a moment where different geographies converge, creating a new sense of belonging within a single, unified gaze.

    Drawing from personal experiences of the harsh scrutiny placed on women’s bodies, appearance, and behavior in Japanese society, the artist has come to depict the female form with boldness and elegance.

    The Japanese gardens stretching across the background are a form of art that borrows the power of nature to express curvilinear beauty, mirroring the contours of the female body. Inspired by Niki de Saint-Phalle’s 'Miss Black Power' at the Hakone Open-Air Museum, this work portrays a magnificent woman dancing proudly and commandingly amidst the garden

    In the world of Bonsai, the passage of time only enhances a tree's value. In contrast, our society often fails to see aging in women as a source of worth. Historically, art has also been dominated by the gaze of male artists painting young female muses. 'Age ain’t nothing but a number?' By painting Bonsai, I seek to challenge and redefine the value of age within both society and the history of art."

  • Still-life-ish

    Year: 2025
    Media: oil on linen
    Size: 530 x 450 mm

    Still-life is one of the classical Western painting genres.
    Most often, they are figurative depictions of fruit, baskets, and classic tableware on a table, which is different from what we see on our tables today.
    By mixing Western objects such as a heeled shoe and a feminist art book with Eastern objects such as a teapot for Japanese tea and a scissor for Ikebana, the work represents the Western and Eastern ways of life that are intricately mixed in the artist’s life.
    Still-life-ish is a contemporary version of still-life created from artist’s point of view.
