In 1978, Ju Ming went to Japan for exhibitions twice. That was the first time his "Taichi Series" attracted attention, among which, "Single Whip" has, since then, found its foothold in Japanese "Chokoku no mori". "Taichi Series" opened another foreground of his creation also. Actually, before then, in the exhibition of 1976 through which he found fame, Ju Ming had exhibited a woodcarving with the topic of Kong Fu, which could be considered as the origin of the "Taichi Series". But, in the view of Ju Ming, it is the "Taichi Series" that is the starting point of his own style. He expresses the vital force from inside to outside rather than from outside to inside.

In the sculptures of the "Taichi Series", the relations between the geometric abstraction and active posture of the figures, as well as the contrast between the dynamic and static, the rough and terse in tridimensionality form a rich rhythmic change in the works. The sculpture presents a very colorful effect of change between light and shadow. In "Single Whip", relying on his own experience and judgment, Ju Ming made artistic treatment of the familiar Taichi culture and relevant boxing skills, having broken away from previous and relevant frame, giving out a kind of vitality and irresistible power.

Ju Ming's creation of the "Taichi Series" has made mutual reference and integration of the sculpture on a shelf and the environmental sculpture and introduced a new concept of modern sculpture, endowing modern public space with a wider visual creation and humanistic prospect. With its unique visual symbol and sculptural graphic arts, the "Taichi Series" has become a complementation of an urban life and an extension of natural creation. The works have shaped a visual effect of conquering the dynamic by static and exciting touch sense, being provided with a specific impelling force of the age and teemed with endless imagination and edification of a contemporary aesthetic spirit.
