Artist Profile
In 1989, I came to Japan for art research. In 1997, I completed the doctoral program in Aesthetics at Kwansei Gakuin University. While researching Japanese art, I also engaged in artistic activities. I have presented unique works that fuse Chinese painting and Japanese painting, exhibited in national Suibokuga (ink wash painting) art exhibitions, and received various awards. In 2021, I was selected as a renowned contemporary Chinese artist by China Post and a commemorative stamp was issued. I have held exhibitions throughout Japan, and conducted lectures and workshops nationwide. Currently, I serve as the Chairman of the Japan International Art Exchange Center, Chairman of the Japan-China Calligraphy and Painting Art Exchange Association, Director of the Kyoto China Calligraphy and Painting Academy, Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Osaka International Suibokuga Art Exhibition, and a Suibokuga instructor at Kwansei Gakuin University.
