"Whisper" – a visual journey into that subtle, gentle voice emanating from the back of our minds. It's the serene whisper that often goes unnoticed yet fills us with an overwhelming sense of gratitude.

Transitioning from a science background to the art world, my journey is one of continuous learning and exploration. My passion for art ignited years ago in a medical research lab, where the vibrant colors and intricate structures of tissues and cells captivated me. Despite lacking formal training, my dream blossomed when I met my mentor, JenZ Shifu, who introduced me to his unique non-representational art form called "Iconography," blending Chinese calligraphy, ink art, and Western painting. Under his close supervision, encouragement, and inspiration, I have passionately embraced my artistic journey. My work was recently featured in *Artistcloseup* magazine, and I had the privilege of showcasing my art in New York City's Artifact Gallery. I paint spontaneously, capturing emotions that often surprise me in their complexity. As described by the gallery, the tension felt between color and form is a driving force in my work, where color plays a principal role, and sensitivity to hue and tone creates a vibrant presence.
