Kindness in Ink – Harmony in Art

Over the past two days, we witnessed an unforgettable gathering of art, wisdom, and human connection at the “Kindness in Ink – Harmony in Art” exhibition and talkshow featuring renowned Chinese ink artist Yang Bailiang and spiritual teacher and author Lu Xia.

The event brought together guests from all walks of life — including young professionals, families, creatives, and thought leaders — to reflect on timeless values such as compassion, virtue, and inner balance through the powerful language of traditional Chinese art and Eastern philosophy.

Guests were treated to a mesmerising live painting performance by both Artist Yang and Teacher Lu Xia — two masters from different worlds united by the same spirit of harmony and expression.

Teacher Lu Xia’s calligraphy piece, titled

“Light of Harmony – Energy Rise, Harmony and Unity,” was a spontaneous work flowing from the movement of cosmic energy — shaped by the atmosphere of the event, the energy she emanated, and her heartfelt connection and gratitude to the audience and to Artist Yang.

Artist Yang’s ink painting, titled

“The Fruit of Harmony – Auspicious Longevity Peach, Ping An Joy,” captured the warmth and quiet joy of ripe peaches — a symbol of peace, vitality, and long life. The work reflects not only the graceful energy of the peach blossom but also the calm, sincere presence of an artist who, at age 82, has devoted over 60 years to Chinese ink art and to sharing its spirit with the world.

From book signings and shared laughter to silent moments of reflection in front of the paintings, the two-day experience left an imprint on many hearts — reminding us that art and wisdom, when intertwined, have the power to uplift, connect, and heal.
