🖼 ONE LINE FROM THIS PAINTING
"What does a landscape painted not with a brush but with fingers convey?"
📝ONGO's Reflection
This is a landscape, one of twelve finger-paintings by the Qing dynasty painter Gao Qipei. It is painted with ink applied to fingers and nails instead of a brush. Though it came from the tradition of Chinese painting, its attempt resounds anywhere. I see, in this fingertip painting, the courage to break from the frame. To paint with the fingers when all use the brush is a heart that would not be confined to a familiar tool. When a tool makes one follow only a set path, new expression opens in setting it down. More than what one paints with, what one seeks to hold comes first.
