Gratings of Insight No.2 by Chanyu Kuo is a delicate fusion of tradition, spirituality, and the ever-evolving nature of hope. In this piece, soft green smoke rises gently, a serene and graceful gesture like the curling tendrils of a joss stick burning in Taiwanese temples. This subtle wisp of smoke, often used in worship, symbolizes prayers sent to the heavens—expressions of hope, reverence, and an invitation for blessings to descend.
The artwork is a meditation on optimism and growth, embodied by the warm, flickering presence of lanterns and fire. These glowing elements, humble yet radiant, evoke the light of resilience and the power of inner strength. Like the lanterns that illuminate the night during festivals, Chanyu’s work speaks to the persistence of light even in the face of darkness—each flame a symbol of energy, potential, and a quiet, determined optimism.
Through Gratings of Insight No.2, Chanyu invites viewers to reflect on the essence of growth. The fire’s glow and the smoke’s ascent echo the cycles of life: the unseen forces that shape us, the hopes we nurture in silence, and the vibrant energy that drives our continual becoming. This piece is not just a visual representation but a spiritual journey—a connection between the earthly and the divine, carried on the currents of devotion and faith.
