Falcon and Goose, of the Imagined Landscape series, feature surreal and dystopian industrial landscapes juxtaposed with nature—the splendor of the mountains and waterfalls in Norway. While the aesthetics pay tribute to the tradition of Chinese landscape painting, the urban details are composed of images documenting the skylines of Asian metropolises from the 2010s, beginning with my hometown Shanghai.

Over two decades of practice in art, I have traveled around the world to capture landscapes in diverse forms, which I then repurpose as brushstrokes in my digital compositions. I am dedicated to revitalizing the tradition of landscape painting while introducing a culturally specific perspective to global concerns. Through these landscapes, I seek to share the awe I feel in front of nature’s beauty, as well as the sorrow that comes with witnessing its irreversible transformation.
