As a child, I was taught about the harmony and balance in Chinese philosophy and landscape painting; as an adult, I encountered the West?s rational and scientific way of thinking. This work is the outcome of this double influence. While the circle represents balance, it can also resemble the observation of nature by using X-rays and microscopes. The equilibrium between positive and negative also reflects the ?Yin? and ?Yang?, two opposing principles that coexist in everything.
