Nearly a decade in the making From “the gentleman” to “the junzi” (the noble person) Learning beauty from the Eastern source Exploring a future path of Chinese style Awakening in the clash between old prejudices and new meanings Refining to capture its soul Recasting its body Immersed in the long river of national culture Searching, exploring Reconstructing the reunion of ancient, unadorned lands Wandering, pondering, drawing forth the inspiring power to perceive nature Growing forth Garments forever suspended between past and future.
