For me, ink painting is not constructed on the basis of elegant representation for both refined and popular tastes; instead, it is a positive expression of the concept of ink painting. My ink painting creations primarily involve crossing and extending from within the system to beyond the system, exploring the complexity and multiplicity of ink painting to embody its contemporary language expression. In my engagement with research on composite ink painting, I attempt to further integrate the techniques and concepts of ink painting with cross-media expressions. I propose a new form of ink painting expression after traditional ink painting, called "composite ink painting." This involves combining the concepts of "conceptual movement," "spatial movement," and "formal movement" while integrating the concept of "cross-media." This shapes the multiple juxtapositions and boundary extensions of ink language. Furthermore, I advance ink art from a two-dimensional dimension to a three-dimensional spatial installation form. Through this progression, ink painting, within a certain alienated margin, establishes a unique expression in the entire realm of ink art.
