    Description

    The First Samadhi (Concentration) of Buddha (2022). 35.7 X 50.7 cm. Mixed media on Flora paper.
    (The insect parts are colored with the glitter watercolor.)

    As a young prince, Siddhartha (the given name of Buddha) was taken into the fields to witness a plowing contest. He observed men sweating and exerting themselves as well as birds swooping down from the sky devouring insects. He soon became overwhelmed by these events, as they reflected the misery of human life and the inevitability of death. He left the contest and wandered until he found a wood apple (jambu) tree. He sat beneath this tree and entered into a trance. This event was a precursor to his subsequent meditation called “The First Samadhi (Concentration) of Buddha (樹下觀耕).” To me, carnivorous plants are beautiful and mysterious, but at the same time, they remind me of the harsh reality that Prince Siddhartha faced.

  • About this artist

    Concept

    Delicate lines are the core elements that breathe life into my artworks, and for this, fine waterproof drawing pens are essential tools for my art. Using the sophisticated and intense outlines drawn with pens as my basis, I color the artworks with various materials such as watercolor, colored pencils, acrylic, etc.
