Drawing inspiration from natural forms in city gardens, riversides, canals, lakes, and green fields—serene sanctuaries offering refuge from urban life. The outdoors, deeply therapeutic, engages senses beyond sight, transforming Yiwei's mindset through multisensory experiences. Comfort is found in the environment's unpredictability, embracing constant change that symbolizes life's dynamic essence. Yiwei's artistic practice reflects the belief that "nothing is permanent except change," fostering an open-mindedness influencing the creative process. It celebrates the energy of life and the beauty in variations brought by perpetual movement. Like disruptions on a canal's surface, Yiwei's work captures the unpredictable interplay between form and abstraction. This dynamic interplay between form and abstraction embodies a celebration of the unpredictable. Yiwei's work seeks to capture and honour the impermanence that defines our existence, inviting the viewer to find the beauty of ever-changing dance of life.
