Introduction
Yang Min-lang's "Bodhisattva (Ink Flow)" intriguingly blends traditional ink painting techniques with a modern artistic expression, forming a unique style. The portrayal of the Bodhisattva in this piece strays from the meticulous detail typical of traditional portraiture, instead presenting a natural and spontaneous aesthetic. Yang's flowing ink technique, developed through self-teaching, creates bold strokes that transcend the material representation to invoke a sense of divinity. His work not only demonstrates mastery over the mediums of paint and canvas but also reflects a profound dialogue between the artist and his materials.
