About the Item
This painting captures the beauty and serenity of a verdant scene in an early morning. At the center of the canvas, a plump bean rest. Meanwhile its contours, being chaotic but inviting, are rendered with sweeping shape and lines, evoking a feeling of jerking. The texture-seal technique creates a surrounding foliage heave and turn, symbolizing a vast potential for growth and switch. The Zen calligraphic freehand brush-strokes highlight a sense of energy and vitality, reminding of an intricate inter-connectedness between agents of transient flow and change.
From 2022 to 2023, Cymn extended a soul karma in her Washington saloon that spearheads to create a masterful suited style of American ethos. The ethos showcases an accomplishment in self-realization of aesthetic views of both Eastern and Western cultures. Wong attempts to vitalize certain built-in imageries and present the visual world via a dynamic interaction for human passion with the environment and the universe. In retrospect about the reciprocity between poetry and art, Cymn’s artistic attainments are expanding into a vivid oasis that she has been stimulated in an international platform.
Three turning points of creativity for Cymn Wong’s recent paintings: (1) SHIFT IN AESTHETICS: From traditional Chinese painting to contemporary New York Abstract Expressionism; (2) DRIFT IN POETICS: From poetic vision to Zen mindful calligraphy-landscape; (3) TWIST IN CONTEXT: From Hong Kong to American Experiences.
Cymn renders abstract landscapes with a particular frame of mind in poetry that reveals the meaning of painting intoxicated by its mood and image. For example, by incorporating the shape of the bean sprout into visual language, her art creates an alternative way of revealing the wisdom of Zen philosophy and its insights. The unique aesthetic of her paintings is a fusion of the fluidity and freedom of abstract expressionism with the contemplative practice of Zen calligraphy. This integration of passionate energy and meditative stillness presents a landscape that is holistically dynamic and contemplative, evocative and reflective.
The bean sprout is a crystalized symbol. Its unique shape evokes the numbers "0" and "1". The "0" of the bean sprout represents nothingness or emptiness, a void that is pregnant with potential. The "1", on the other hand, represents possibilities and growth. The dynamic interplay between these two facets for growth, meanwhile its renewal is inherent continuously in every moment.
In short, Cymn Wong’s painting is imbued with subtle fuse of intrinsic imagery and poetic fluidity, allowing the inner-echoes to lead the brushstrokes on its own accord. With a heightened sense of life vigor that goes beyond a mere representation, Cymn is sensitized and mindful free to present a transformed landscape anew.

View AllThe Sprout Is Bulky, While Its Bean Is Sulky
Located in Rockville, MD
A bean sprout is hereby portrayed with striking contrast, depicted as a massive, but light in coloring presence, in which the majority of the canvas is occupied with its hulking stems and oversized leaves. The bean, on the other hand, is small and sullen, sitting at the base of the sprout with a downcast expression. The texture seal technique has been used to create areas of both positive and negative spatiality. Moreover, the Zen calligraphy freehand brush strokes add a sense of sluggish flow, a poignant reminder of the delicate balance between strength and vulnerability, and the ever-shifting interplay between these opposing forces.

A Bean Inches Sprouting into Clinch
Located in Rockville, MD
Creating on the vibrant energy of abstract expressionism, this dynamic painting process celebrates the power of growth and transformation through the image of a sprouting plant which arms out as if it is to hold the totality of man’s world. It also stretched out its body to embrace the wonders of the living sky. Through a bold and striking composition, suppressed colors free and doted white strokes, the painting invites the viewer to explore the intricate details of the natural world and to the potential for endless possibilities that exists within us all in a new light.

A Bean Couple
Located in Rockville, MD
It is a metaphorical painting canvas that celebrates the vibrant and harmonious interplay of love. This painting conveys the intimate bonds between two beings; their lives entwined like the tendrils of a bean sprout. Through the deft application of vivid strokes, yet delicate, its sweet colors infuse the canvas with a sense of inter-relatedness and hope. The parallel composition, “strategically” coupled with an insider’s placement of brushstrokes and colors, portraits a serene balance between simplicity and complexity, inviting outsider viewers to ponder the subtleties of human connection.

Sprouting for an Inch, in for a Mile
Located in Rockville, MD
" Sprouting for an Inch, in for a Mile" is a powerful painting process that captures the essence of life and vitality. This painting captures the spirit of improvisation and adaptation, with dynamic form that projects for a willingness to take risks and explore new variables. The sprouts seem to reach out to and connect with each other, forming a bridge that spans the spatiality between them. The vibrant colors and sensitive brushwork in this canvas suggest a for sense of confidence and determination. The sprouts seem to be forging a path forward, with a clear sense of purpose and direction.
The oblique structure and multi-faceted forms accumulate to create a sense of vivid motion and change. Its cursive brushes of Zen calligraphy convey something as if the painting process itself is to be alive and pulsing with an encyclical energy. The sprouts seem to be in a constant state of flux, evolving and adapting as they grow and mature. It implies that life is exactly a battlefield, wherever you, go with all your heart. The vein pattern that run through the painting process symbolizes the strength of life that sustains all living beings, while the smaller bean sprouts around represent the hope for new growth with trust.
