About the artwork

Hong Zhu An presents an abstract, monochromatic composition that evokes a profound sense of reverie. The layered grey washes and dark, amorphous forms suggest a visual exploration of the subconscious, where fragmented memories and fleeting thoughts come together. The delicate, faded calligraphy, though illegible, serves as a poignant reminder of time's passage and the ephemeral nature of experience, its textures symbolizing the erosion of temporal boundaries. The deliberate use of a muted palette fosters an atmosphere of tranquility, inviting contemplation and introspection.
