Zhuangzi's Butterfly Dream

This horizontal scroll painting was inspired by a well-known parable in Daoist philosophy, Zhuangzi's dream of a butterfly, exploring the fluidity of identity and the mystery of perception. What is the boundary between the self and objective world? The painting reflects on how distinctions between dream and waking, self and other, are constantly changing, evoking a state of ambiguity and contemplation through flowing forms and colors.
