Art is not the direct reflection of the reality, but the abstractly combining segments of feeling and give it the aesthetic meaning at the same time.

Poetic imagination evokes artist's creation. When casting the poetic imagination into glass, he wants to express his feeling about the real life and the world, to some extend, to be intoxicated with happiness and relaxation. Glass should not be treated as simple as a material but a way, a medium, a poetic language to convey and celebrate maker's private discrete vision of the life and world though visual effect. What he pursued is an ideal, namely neither adhere rigidly to the national characters, nor to the tradition and restore ancient ways, what he takes notice of are the expression of beauty and poetic imagination.

When gazing at artwork of glass entrusted with poetic imagination for a while, you can feel its peculiar artistic characters from every surface. The light - refracted and reflected from inside - is mysterious and charming to express the maker's innermost feeling and artistic spirit without any limitation.

When audience is moved by a work, he/she will hear the Calling of the truth when artist made his creation. Having established the relation between the works and audience, the latter will experience a kind of sacredness, sanctified state of mind and the brightest thing will be shown and released in our soul. At that time, we knew ourselves - the unlimited potential energy and utmost emotion.
