Mo Hen regards painting on screens as an unexpected journey toward self-realization, originating from tea and fueled by a fascination with Eastern aesthetics, yet having taken a unique path. His brushwork inherits the legacy of the Song and Yuan dynasties, specifically from Mu Xi and Liang Kai, and is deeply influenced by Zen Buddhism.
