The series "The Root of Prajna" shifts Buddhist art from sacred symbols to the lives of everyday beings. Birds, beasts, insects, flowers, and plants, along with their habitats, may seem mundane, yet through inscriptions, composition, and the rustic language of watermark woodcuts, they become a practice space for reflecting on life. The "prajna" expressed in the work is not an abstract wisdom removed from life, but is rooted in the postures of existence of all beings, their interdependent relationships, and the continuous labor of the creator.
