FURTHER DETAILS
"The subject of my work is mostly the depiction of what used to be called 'Paradise on Earth', a city known for its waterways that has a history of 2,500 years-Suzhou. This ancient, elegant, gentle and serene city, its every garden, its every canal, its ever-present white-washed walls that are worn and dilapidated by rains and wind, and its every piece of moss-grown brick are all evidence of an ancient history." -Liu Maoshan
