🖼 ONE LINE FROM THIS PAINTING
"Why does the dragon, half hidden in cloud, not reveal itself fully?"
📝ONGO's Reflection
This anonymous Chinese painting holds a dragon nestled among mountains and water. The dragon hides half its body in cloud and mist, showing only its head or its scales. Because it does not show the whole, its majesty and unfathomable depth are added to. The aesthetic of not revealing everything carries anywhere. Here I see the power of concealment. Show everything, and neither mystery nor lingering trace remains. At times, to reveal only a part and leave the rest in mist makes a person larger and deeper. Empty space is not a weakness but a depth.
