Enso Paintings
An Enso, synonymous with a Japanese Zen circle and has its origins from Chinese Buddhism and Taoism, with its extensive connotations from a symbol of enlightenment to completeness and emptiness.
It is said that the artist’s heart and mind are captured in the present moment of the painted Enso and perhaps a reminder of impermanence once completed.
This simple but meaningful form has been the starting point for much of my work for many years, usually interconnecting many layers, in different mediums or colours - building on both physical paint layers and meanings to each series. Being a British born Chinese artist living in London, my contemporary artwork is an amalgamation of both my eastern and western influences,
It explores a non-linguistic expression with calligraphic gestural markings, embodying the essence of Taoist and Buddhist philosophies. Creating a visible manifestation of moving energy through the brush onto paper, where the movements of each mindful brushstroke are interconnected with the breath.
White Framed Enso paintings
These original gold and silver leaf and black ink paintings, were created mindfully, in a meditative and tranquil space, connecting mind, body and breath, evoking movement and energy.
The dynamic gestural strokes were painted using traditional Chinese calligraphic brushes onto natural linen or cotton canvas boards and completed with bespoke wooden frames to create these minimalistic contemporary artworks.

All of these 100 Ensos have been individually hand-crafted and are one of a kind, so don't miss out, once it sold, its gone...
10% of sales from this project will be donated to The Lelung Dharma Trust. This charity was founded by H.E. the 11th Lelung Rinpoche, who currently lives in London, devoting his time across several projects.
