Principle

One-of-a-kind

It is my principle who creates the original paintings that I have created with all my heart using CG graphics, and then prints them out in high resolution onto canvas, making them exist in this world as one-of-a-kind original paintings. In keeping with the spirit of the Xieyi painting as a Talisman, the soul that resides in the painting lives on in the canvas.

Xieyi Painting – The Art of Expressing Spirit over Form

“Xieyi” painting (写意画), often translated as “freehand brushwork” or “literati painting,” is a traditional Chinese art form that values spirit, mood, and essence more than precise, realistic detail.
Rather than copying the appearance of nature, Xieyi seeks to capture its inner life and feeling—the energy of a flower blooming, the spirit of a mountain, or the breath of the wind.
Xieyi painting is not just about what you see, but what you feel. It’s an art of suggestion, spontaneity, and simplicity, where a few expressive brushstrokes can speak more deeply than a thousand fine lines.
“Unlike realistic painting, Xieyi is not about imitation—it is about revelation. It reveals the soul of the subject, and the heart of the painter.”

Special value as a Talismanic Diagram

Xieyi Painting as a Talismanic Diagram – A Visual Expression of Energy and Spirit ―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――
Xieyi painting, when created as a “talismanic diagram” (符図 / fú tú), goes beyond artistic beauty.
It becomes a sacred symbol—a visual vessel that holds and transmits energy (qi), intention, and spiritual resonance.
Unlike decorative art, such works are not merely for viewing, but are meant to align space, mind, and spirit. Each brushstroke is imbued with meaning, vibration, and consciousness, reflecting Daoist cosmology, natural law, and inner cultivation.
These paintings function like visual mantras or energetic maps, guiding the viewer toward harmony, vitality, and insigh.
They are not just paintings—they are living symbols.
　

Reviving Sacred Diagrams — Xieyi as Living Conceptual Art

This body of work brings the ancient power of talismanic diagrams (fú tú) into the present, reborn as a unique fusion of Xieyi freehand brushwork and contemporary conceptual art. Inspired by Daoist cosmology, the flow of qi, and symbolic balance, each painting is not just for viewing—it is designed to act.
These are not passive images. They are energetic structures, created to harmonize space, calm the mind, and awaken deeper resonance in the viewer. Using expressive strokes and potent emptiness, the artist renders not form, but presence—visualizing the unseen rhythms of yin and yang, the silent orbit of the Five Phases, and the breath of the Dao itself. Each piece becomes a code of presence, like a living diagram. What once adorned temples and ritual halls now re-emerges as art—timeless, intentional, and spiritually charged. This is Xieyi reborn—art that acts.

Xieyi Painting – 写意画

Xieyi Painting as Visual Poetry – Where Brush Becomes Breath｜写意画 ― 詩が絵となり、絵が空間に気を通す

In the tradition of classical music, great composers often set the verses of poets to melody—transforming emotion into resonance, and word into sound. Just as Schubert gave voice to Goethe’s poetry, or Mahler sculpted vast landscapes of soul through Rückert’s verse, so too can visual art echo the spirit of poetry—not merely illustrating, but breathing its essence into space.
Xieyi painting, or “writing the meaning”, is a form of art that transcends visual realism. Like a poem turned into sound, it turns emotion into ink—into rhythm, flow, silence, and space. It captures the invisible feeling, the spiritual gesture behind a moment, much like a Chopin nocturne captures twilight without showing a single star.
In this sense, Xieyi is not only painting—it is visual composition, an intuitive symphony of energy, breath, and intention. These works do not decorate space—they tune it. They are not images of the external world, but expressions of the inner landscape, just as a Lied or a piano sonata opens a quiet door to the soul.

　クラシック音楽の伝統において、偉大な作曲家たちはしばしば詩人の言葉に旋律を与えました。言葉は音へと変わり、感情は響きとなって、聴く者の心を揺さぶります。シューベルトがゲーテを歌い、マーラーがリュッケルトの詩で魂の風景を描いたように、絵画もまた、詩の心を視覚の中に響かせることができるのです。写実ではなく、“意味を写す” ― それが写意です。
　写意画は、目に見えるものを描くのではなく、気・リズム・流れ・沈黙・余白といった、見えざるものを表現します。まるでショパンの夜想曲が一つの星も描かずに黄昏を映すように、この絵もまた、心の光景を墨の中に宿します。
　写意画は、単なる「絵」ではありません。それは視覚による作曲であり、空間に氣（き）を通し、調律するアートです。音楽が静かに魂の扉を開くように、この絵もまた、空間と心に静かな波紋を広げるでしょう。

Talisman

Xieyi Talismanic Paintings — Visual Vessels of Qi and Spirit｜写意タリスマン絵画 ― 気と精神を宿す視覚の器

A talisman is an object believed to hold magical, spiritual, or protective power, often created or consecrated with intention. It may bring luck, protection, healing, energy, or spiritual influence to the person or space it is connected with.

タリスマンとは、魔力、霊力、あるいは守護の力を持つと信じられている物体で、多くの場合、意図を持って作られたり奉納されたりします。タリスマンは、それと結びついた人や空間に、幸運、守護、癒し、エネルギー、あるいは霊的な影響をもたらすと考えられています。

Xieyi × Talisman｜写意画 × タリスマン

When a Xieyi becomes a “talisman,” it is not just a decorative painting, but a “visual talisman” that moves the energy, adjusts the vibrations of the place, and affects the mind and body of the viewer.
In other words: “Xieyi, which is drawn with intention and symbolism, is not only a “picture,” but also a “working diagram” = a talisman.”

写意画が「タリスマン」となるとき、それは単なる装飾画ではなく、氣を動かし、場の波動を整え、見る人の心や体に働きかける“視覚の護符”になります。
つまり：「写意画に、意図と象徴を込めて描かれたものは、“絵”であると同時に、“働く図”＝タリスマンなのです。」

The positioning of Xieyi painting × talisman｜写意画 × タリスマンの位置づけ

When a Xieyi painting is drawn as a talismanic diagram, it is:
In the Eastern sense, it is a visual feng shui for space that regulates the flow of chi and the five elements of yin and yang.
In the Western sense, it is a talisman painted with intention to activate spirituality.

In other words, it is like an open spiritual device that works on space and people.

「写意画」が「符図（talismanic diagram）」として描かれると、それは：
東洋的には：「氣」や「陰陽五行」の流れを調える、空間のための“視覚風水”。
西洋的に言えば：「意図を込めて描かれた、精神性を活性化する絵画型のタリスマン」。

つまり、**空間と人に働きかける“開かれた霊的装置”**のようなものです。

summary｜まとめ

Talismanic Xieyi paintings are not just symbols. They are energetic tools—bridging spirit and space, inviting harmony, clarity, and transformation.

符図としての写意画は単なるシンボルではありません。精神と空間を繋ぎ、調和、明晰さ、そして変容をもたらす、エネルギーに満ちたツールなのです。
