Specialist note

'He loves splashes of color for they are flowers in reality. He paints, fluidly, and then nothing exists but the flowers which are, in reality, splashes. Matisse = I only believe while painting. Ting = painting is now. Never before, never after.'
(Pierre Alechinsky quoted: in Through Ting's Eyes, Longmen Art Project, Walasse Ting: Red Mouth Series 2, Shanghai 2012, p.61)
