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”.
