WU XING
Day after day, in the cycle of mutual growth and mutual restraint,
every move affects the destiny and the universe.
Also known and presented as the five elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water. Day after day, in the cycle of mutual growth and mutual restraint,
every move affects the destiny and the universe.
Each element is different and inseparable, it becomes a perfect balance among the others. This work “Wu Xing“ presents a series of works that categorize these five elements according to their characteristics, and from my own perspective to use animals as a representative interpretation. Among them, in order to emphasize the cycle of gram and symbiosis in the five elements, I added the sunrise and the sunset in each illustration, representing the beginning and the end of the day.

Goat; A so-known symbolic association to the demon.
Along with the fire of karma,when death occurs,
there is also the birth of new life

Light brings positive.
The image I gave to “Metal” is an eagle with wings upwards.
The arrow held on the foot represents that you hold the way of your future.
« Wood »
A snake is surrounded by sharp branches inside the trees.
The forest is hidden with many treasures.
While attracting people to explore, it is also full of danger.
« Water »
The symbol of water is a fish. Water can easily fit into different containers,
it looks soft and week, but has excellent adaptability,
and at the same time being elegant
« Earth »
I think the earth as the mother of the world.
If you want to give the earth an image,
it is a tortoise carrying a lot of historical records, with house of wisdom.
