Childhood and Artistic Foundation
When she was little, she believed in many different fairy tales, invented interesting stories for herself, and eagerly awaited bedtime to dream about them. These dreamscapes fueled her imagination. Though a solitary child without many friends, she wasn’t lonely. She spent much of her time observing the world outside her window and, while playing outdoors, enjoyed examining insects and plants on the ground. Now, she recognizes these memories of wonder and imagination as the very foundation of her artistic thinking.
Artistic Style and Development
Most of her works are created with pigment ink on silk or rice paper. After studying traditional Chinese painting for seven years at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, China, she produced several large-scale pieces, primarily paintings on silk and rice paper using the Gongbi technique. From 2011 to 2015, her works focused more on expressing her inner feelings and worldview. Since 2016, she has experimented with various techniques to refine her artistic skills and abilities.
Themes and Inspiration
Many of her works reflect Buddhist philosophy. As both an individual and an artist, she strives to listen to her inner voice and find answers to questions arising from the external environment. Drawing on the Neo-Confucian concept “To achieve the big, focus on the small,” which influenced Chinese traditional flower and bird painting, she seeks a deeper understanding of the natural world. She expresses this concept through her own impressions, capturing the essence of nature. In 2019, three series of 100 x 100 cm paintings titled “Mother Nature,” rendered in pigment ink on silk, became a prime representation of her search for an imaginary connection between humanity and nature, reflecting the Mongolian people’s deep respect for the environment.
Artistic Voice and Expression
As an artist, she avoids directly expressing her full range of emotions to the audience. Instead, she infuses her work with subtle, magical undertones, using traditional techniques to represent symbolic elements through plants and birds. Her aim is to express her ideas through imagery, color, and composition, reflecting the contemporary world. She avoids portraying the everyday world directly, preferring to create a magical realm by transforming real forms of nature through her imagination, without distortion.
The Power of Perception
Believing that the viewer’s impression brings her artwork to life, she strives not to overwhelm but to evoke aesthetic pleasure.
