Ocarina serenade
2018
The painting was inspired by a Japanese ocarina song 'the original scenery of my hometown' composed by Sojiro. Ocarina is a kind of ancient flute made by clay. The song I heard  when sleeping stimulated my primal perception of a subconsciously floating dialogue between body gesture and natural scenes in order to experience the mental journey of struggling and release. It's not a dream, but a true inner motivation unveiled by music.
