Aba Through a Monk’s Eyes
Spiritual Practices
by Yong Dan
This album Aba Through a Monk’s Eyes is a storybook in which monk and photographer Yongdan tells stories of Aba through his lens. Knowing that the external thoughts in the world and man’s inner thoughts are emptiness, Yongdan realizes that the affectionate magnificent world and the fervent real life are not mirages. His obsession with photography originates from his complete enlightenment in life and death, from his mercy towards and love of all the living creatures. Perhaps we can understand it in this way – photography is his second language and he is chanting sutras with his lens. In the final analysis, photography is Yongdan’s practice of Buddhism in another way.

Spiritual Mountain
by Zhou Qing
The essence of 'Spiritual Mountain' lies in the shaping of natural emotions with 'lines', where poeticity merged with 'To be or not to be, this is the question; to silently endure the fierce and poisonous arrows of life, or to stand up to the boundless suffering of the world'... When we talk about beauty, hope, and the possibility of death in all experiences... When we feel the moment of all this, 'Never fear it – reverberates the voice of eternity.' The mountains, shaped like the steamed buns, are all-inclusive. They also resemble the seated tombs that lead to an eternal philosophical proposition — death. Zhou Qing's artistic utterance is full of loneliness, which is beautiful, because only when one is alone can the mind be truly quiet and rational.In her paintings, each scene is dark and gloomy, seemingly wrapped in silent shouts and the deepest despair. The painting strokes, sometimes soft and slow, sometimes tough and prompt, are the exquisite feelings and delicate emotions of the artist.
