Mind-Scape

Description

Description

Mind and Scape: the mind and soul, the spirit and elements, the scene and landscape. The fusion of mind and landscape draws from tradition, harkening back to the ways in which Song, Yuan and Ming dynasty literati painting sought out possibilities beyond the approaches of Neo-Confucianism. As Dong Qichang famously said, “when it comes to the magnificence of the scene, the landscape (Shan-Shui or Moutain-water) surpasses the painting; when it comes to the ingenuity of brush and ink, the painting surpasses the landscape.” He was demonstrating the inevitability of the interplay between mental cultivation and the richness of the natural landscape.
