Specialist note

“For me, I also see a lot of naivety and very emotional elements in Mondrian's paintings. But at the same time, its rigor, just like in architecture, also influences me a lot. So I think that naivety and rigor are not two contradictory elements, they can be combined together.” - Liu Ye
