The "Root of Prajna (26)" series shifts Buddhist art from sacred symbols to the everyday lives of beings. Birds, beasts, insects, flowers, and their habitats may seem secular and ordinary, yet through inscriptions, composition, and the humble language of watermarked woodblock printing, they become a site for the contemplation of life. The "Prajna" portrayed in the work is not an abstract wisdom detached from life, but rather rooted in the postures of existence of all things, their interdependent relationships, and the ongoing labor of the creator.
