Chin Wu has been through a complete training of painting and calligraphy, with a great command of capturing the spirit of Chinese painting and calligraphy. The abstract paintings transformed from this basis should be considered to have a deep cultural connection. In the simple and swiftly made color blocks, black lines are used to link them together, which gives the picture a tone of oriental aesthetics - an abstraction dominated by lines. In Wu's works, you can feel that the paintings absorb the abstract expressions of the West with the ever-changing effects, while the black lines swim among the high- color blocks like a dragon.
