Introduction
Trees and countryside, mountains and seas,
villages and castles, temples and churches,
countless people, and the moon hanging high in the sky.
The various scenes encountered during the journey become windows, opening up spiritual journeys for the painter Lin Jingzi.
Through her sincere eyes, her paintings also become windows leading viewers to another world.
That world, so dreamy, so pure, is incredibly yearned for.
This book includes Lin Jingzi’s works from 2017 to 2023.
Artist profile
Yasuko Hayashi
Born in 1974, in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. Hayashi graduated from the Tokyo University of Arts’ Department of Painting, where she specialized in Japanese Painting. Hayashi uses abstract realism to represent the vicissitudes of eastern feminism. Working mainly with traditional Japanese painting, which is delicate, pure, and exquisite. Hayashi does not shy from engendering the poignancy of Eastern spirituality through complex and textured layers in her works, marking her apart from artists that fall trapped to superficiality and banal straightforwardness.
The indescribable mysteriousness and profound serenity that her works present, breathing through the intricate constructions of layers and scenes, seduce the mind to mystic lands they seem to promise. Hayashi’s sceneries are ethereal, peaceful, and silently in progress. Tempered and elevated, moments born of the undulating rhythm of life come into full bloom on her canvas.
