Dual Realities: Peony and Vessel

This painting explores the tension between the fleeting bloom of the peony and the enduring solidity of the vessel.

Within its surreal space, natural and sculptural forms intertwine—inviting reflection on memory, time, and beauty’s coexistence with impermanence.

Peony Vase: The Light Within
Journey to the Homeland – Stories of People and Places
Yuan Ru Art Center
12737 Bel-Red Rd #10016
Bellevue, WA 98005
March 28 – April 2, 2025
This exhibition, presented by the City of Bellevue’s Cross-Cultural Center without Walls, brings together diverse artistic voices to explore themes of identity, heritage, and place.
Peony Vase: The Light Within reimagines the traditional Korean moon jar as a vessel of both form and light. The peony flowers, symbols of beauty and prosperity, are illuminated within a spectrum of cascading colors—red, orange, yellow, green, and blue. These hues merge seamlessly with the jar, dissolving boundaries between the physical and the ethereal.
