"In the land of Imaginalia, a cheerful Monkey is chasing dragonflies that sparkle in the sun, while from a branch below, a quiet Lemur watches him, dreaming with open eyes and lost in thought. Nearby, a wise Turtle walks slowly, carrying three little Birds who sing softly as they ride, making her way to the lake. There, two Mandarin Ducks glide gently across the water, enjoying a beautiful day together as always. A tiny Colibri flutters between blossoms, pausing mid- air as if listening to the world breathe. Above them all, a graceful Crane draws circles in the sky, watching his peaceful, magical world unfold — and now, these creatures are here, on your table, ready to share their quiet joy at every meal."

"The elements in CJ Zhang 's "Black on Black" series: high heels, churches, whales, deer, stars, roses, and rainbows, which exist in reality but carry deeper symbolic meanings, are expressed through exaggeration, miniaturization, and magnification to convey his inner beliefs. reflections on contemporary consumer society, and explorations of faith."

Mu Sa

MUSA is an artist born in Cangzhou, Hebei. Guided early by Cui, Wengshu and Sun Jixiang, he later pursued advanced studies in Beijing under Yang Sheng, Yuan Guolei, and Cui Dongxu. His practice spans experimental gongbi ink, mixed media, acrylic and oil painting, exploring the coexistence of darkness and light, ink and color, and the dynamic dialogue between tradition and contemporary expression.

Musa may have absorbed some techniques and strengths from the lineages of Cui Wengshu (watercolor), Sun Jixiang (ink painting), Cui Dongxu (rough brushwork), Yang Sheng (color ink painting and contemporary figures), and Yuan Guolei (parallelism of tradition and contemporary art), but ultimately formed a completely different personal system: seeking harmony within contradictions, introducing fissures within order, allowing images to present a "reconstructed Eastern spirituality."

He dislikes uniformity and is unwilling to be bound by a single style, but rather enjoys migrating and experimenting between different forms and materials.

"Tracing his aesthetic resonance, one can see the "enchanting to the point of despair" flowers and colors in Nobuyoshi Araki's photography—the death and rebirth implied between blooming and withering flowers—which also become one of the emotional undertones of his work."
