Chen Zongyu's work demonstrates an artistic approach that navigates between tradition and modernity. While his creations are rooted in the brushwork techniques of traditional landscape painting, he does not confine himself to classical methods. Instead, he reinterprets traditional textural strokes, composition, and colors, integrating contemporary visual language and techniques. His work goes beyond mere representation, serving as both a response to and an innovation upon tradition. It is not just a tribute to history but an exploration of new forms of expression that breathe new life into ink painting within a modern context. Through this approach, he extends the possibilities of landscape painting, allowing viewers to experience a unique aesthetic and spiritual space where the familiar and the unfamiliar, tradition and modernity, converge.
