Since ancient times, the green bamboo, as a symbol of moral fortitude, has boasted the literary style of a Junzi (Confucian gentleman) characterized by humble-mindedness and upward-striving. It stands straight yet pliable, constantly reaching for the sky, its hollowness signifying an open heart eager to learn and progress. The white deer, like a celestial envoy descended from mythical realms, represents traditional auspiciousness. With its delicate form and gentle mien, its beauty is as ethereal and graceful as a fairy's dance, gliding through an idyllic landscape.
The artwork presents a blended entity of the contemplative deer and the vibrant green bamboo. Here, the deer seems to have found its tranquil sanctuary among the bamboos, their union more than a mere visual combination but a confluence of cultural essences. It aims to capture the auspicious omen of prosperity and good fortune ascending step by step, just like the climbing of the bamboo, and the life-cherished value of looking back on the past, as if the deer is reminiscing its old haunts. In this artistic portrayal, viewers are invited to sense the intertwined threads of hope for a prosperous future and the nostalgic longing for the roots that ground us, encapsulating the profound and nuanced spirit of the East.
