Sans Titre 2 LIN MO

“His approach is that of a Chinese landscape that would have been marked by a visionary tension. By carefully observing his paintings, we discover in fact the most varied of microcosms, in the form of rare faces, strange-looking beings, lost paths in hallucinated forests, hills covered with spruces. (…) In the painting of this artist the neural landscapes harmonize with those of the earth and with this calligraphic impulse that makes spirals and convulsions something that delights the view to the highest degree. »
