LIULI Crystal, Bamboo, Plum Blossoms, The Rite of Spring

The Rite of Spring    

Bamboo holds integrity;
The plum blossom, grace.
Upright with measured poise,
In stillness, immortality stirs.
Void and substance are mirrored;
All creation springs forth.

和韵春生  

竹有节
梅有韵
立而有度
静中生意
虚实相映
万象生

Design Concept

This artwork using bamboo and plum blossoms as its central themes, the work evokes the virtues of the literati: Refusing to pander to popular tastes, unmoved by passing trends, they find their owninternal rhythm

The pairing of bamboo and plum blossoms is inspired by classical paintings, subtly attuned to the principle of Taichi. The mutual tempering of strength and gentleness reflects the reciprocity of yin and yang. The work is filled above and left open below, demonstrating the lively equilibrium of Taichi.

此作品以竹与梅为意象，象征君子之德：不媚俗，不随势而妄动，于内在节奏中自成其序。竹与梅并立，源于传统绘画的构图，暗合太极之理——刚柔互济、阴阳相和。竹向上生长，节节分明，柔中有刚；梅凌寒而开，於寂靜之中蘊藏生命的力量。整体构成以圆为界，呼應太极之象。作品构图上满下留白，是太极动态守恒的写照。
