All is Form

万物皆形

Form describes everything—

 

from the basic and simple,

from nature to beyond nature,

from what we see to what we feel.

 

Form captures moments.

Endless moments lead toward the eternal.

 

The rhythms and patterns of form

are a language we all understand.

 

Jing Shui

形,描述一切——

 

从基本与简单,

从自然到自然之外,

从我们所见,到我们所感。

 

形,捕捉瞬间。

无尽的瞬间,通向永恒。

 

形的韵律与规律,是一种我们都能理解的语言。

MANNED FLIGHT

The card is inspired by Robert Bricker’s Bronze art, Manned Flight. 30 x 48 in.

‘Manned Flight’ (or ‘Wry Awry’ or ‘Aspiration and Tragedy’) is a grand bas-relief depicting the age-old human theme of aspiration and tragedy. The composition is based on the myth of Icarus — a man who ignored his limitations, and lost everything as a consequence of his audacious hubris.
