Tai-an Tea House
By Jimi Wen
Tea ceremony, now served in generative instances. The origin of today’s tea ceremony, “wabi-cha,” emerged as a counter-movement to extravagant tea parties hosted by social elites in the 15th century. As used in the term “wabi-sabi,” wabi, referred to the loneliness of living in nature, remote from society. “Wabi-(sabi)” has found a place in Japanese aesthetics. In wabi-cha, the tea house was itself a medium to the affirmation of life through making tea.

無山不似山
By Jimi Wen
No mountain is not (like) a mountain. In the compilation of Buddhist text Pointing at the Moon Catalogue (指月錄), Qingyuan Xingsi (青原行思), wrote the following: 「見山是山,見山不是山,見山祇是山。」 Seeing mountains are mountains. Seeing mountains are not mountains. Seeing mountains are just mountains.

生成畫荷
By Jimi Wen
An exploration of an ancient generative system. One day I looked up Zhang Daqian’s (張大千) painting of lotus and pond. Daqian has painted over ten thousand lotus paintings, ten times his namesake, qian (千). Like all great artist, while their techniques or forms can change over time, sometimes even to the degree of categorically different genre, what I find to be recognisable and what I identify with is in their composition.
