A hand-painted work on rice paper depicting the enso (circle) and a branch of plum blossoms.

Meaning of the enso:
‘Enso’: the Ring of the Way. It represents the totality of the universe and, at the same time, Emptiness (the Void),
understood not as the source of Nothing but as the source of Everything.

Meaning of the plum tree:
The plum tree represents spring because its flowers bloom whilst there is still snow on the ground. It is a symbol of Spiritual Awakening. The plum tree embodies vigour, longevity, resilience and independence; it is “like an orphan who stands up without anyone’s help”.

Description

Further explanation:
The grass-style calligraphy at the top above the circle is a poem by Master Sengai, 18th century, Japan: ‘Serve yourself and have a cup of tea.’ The red ‘Gyo’ seal means ‘the practice’.

The rice paper is mounted on a white polypropylene backing:
This is an innovative mounting technique using modern materials, a multi-stage process requiring great concentration and experience.

The result is excellent: the backing makes the paper more durable; the work acquires a certain rigidity, ideal for framing.
The colours are produced using coloured inks.

To frame the artwork:
Although the rice paper has a backing, it remains delicate and dust tends to settle on it, so we recommend placing it under glass.
You can choose a simple frame that complements the simplicity of the painting, or opt to add a passe-partout first.
