This artwork is a contemporary fusion of tradition and personal memory, where the artist reimagines his Japanese hometown through the expressive lens of Chinese-style painting. Employing the "xieyi" (freehand) technique, the piece embraces fluid, gestural brushstrokes and a dreamlike atmosphere, capturing not just the physical landscape but its emotional and spiritual essence. The bold interplay of color, abstraction, and ink-like washes creates a sense of movement, evoking the timeless aesthetics of East Asian painting while infusing it with modern sensibilities. In doing so, the artist bridges cultural influences, transforming his hometown into a poetic, almost mythical vision.
