Abstract
This paper is a little journey in exploring various themes through my art work. From transformation and consciousness to action and inaction; from material and immaterial to permanence and impermanence; from primary force, intuition to language, Being and nothingness. It reflects my philosophical background in Taoism and Zen, and reveals some basic concepts of my art work. Being is art, art is about Being, and the living process is the real language. Further on, the paper also relates the intuition, simple Being and meditative Being of my work to the healing function and shamanism tradition of art.
