Artist’s Statement: Ceramic painting is the crystallization of art and science. Each painting is the result of the power of fire and self-creation, and it is the art created by the perfect combination of painting and lava. In the creation process of porcelain painting, the power of fire is gradually mastered, and the charm of lava is combined with traditional Chinese ink painting techniques to create an art form with the characters of our time. It gives me new challenges and releases myself. By using color to convey people’s emotions, and passionate paintings to evoke people’s hidden emotions and pursuits for eternity and mystery. People’s pursuit of art has no national boundaries. The art of East and West collides here. The art of ceramic painting brings its unique beauty to the world and plays a role as a bridge for the development of world culture. It also expresses people’s artistic pursuit in beautiful things.
