Artwork Statement
In Blue and White Porcelain – Peace, Lv explores themes central to the Inspired Her Exhibition. The blue-and-white porcelain vase, emblematic of elegance and resilience in Chinese culture, reflects the inner strength and graceful temperament of women. Complementing this, the wood-carved flower-and-bird window signifies women’s aspirations and pursuit of a beautiful life. Together, these elements highlight the integration of tradition and modernity, while expressing women’s identity and emotional experience within a multicultural context. Through delicate brushwork and subtle colour, the painting conveys women’s longing for peace and a better life, offering a contemplative reflection on cultural memory, emotional depth, and the balance of tradition and modernity in contemporary society.
