This work is one of the last works of the series The Place (2020-2022) which was created after the social movement 2019 (Hong Kong protest) and during the pandemic period in Hong Kong to respond to the thinking of finding a better place to reside. It is an imagined landscape with references from Chinese landscape painting where multi-perspectives are composed in a way that viewers can walk in with their free will. It is a also a reflection in the personal understanding that the ancient Chinese literati painters pursuit their individual freedom spiritually by creating this type of Chinese landscape painting.
