“He is able to keep the feelings from his works strolling within the domain of elegance but without going into deliberate sensationalism. He knows the importance of holding the equilibrium ------- inadequate stimulation on the emotion of the audience would fail the work for being too weak, but overdoing would flood the work with domination. Therefore, he would rather err on the side of understatement. He has demonstrated some unparalleled feat: he makes good efforts in grasping the equilibrium link between the spirits of his works and modernism. He utilizes his strokes, modal patterns and materials to present a tangible sense of elegance. He manages to allow those covered or shaded parts of human body in his works to loom large smartly for emanation of conceptual factors, without seeming overly idealistic.”
