What is even more remarkable is their pioneering nature—they break free from the aesthetic conventions of traditional literati painting and inject new dimensions of expression into its contemporary iteration. On one hand, it involves the modern transformation of brush and ink language: traditional literati painting tends to pursue elegance and serenity, yet these works reconstruct visual tension through "bold, heavy brushwork and dense ink". For example, large blocks of ink-wash and saturated, vibrant colors (such as cinnabar-hued flowers) incorporate expressive brushstrokes into freehand brushwork, retaining the misty, ethereal texture of ink-wash while delivering a strong visual impact that aligns with the aesthetic demands of contemporary spatial environments. On the other hand, it entails the cross-disciplinary integration of formal language: some works employ subtle geometric patterns and light color textures as backgrounds, juxtaposing traditional ink-wash with modern principles of planar composition. This approach does not dilute the freehand spirit of literati painting; instead, it creates a visual rhythm of "ancient-modern fusion", building a bridge between traditional literati aesthetics and contemporary visual experiences.
