The several puzzle books that provided the source images for Painting of Thought. From the first painting, Painting of Thought has a sense of mission. How do we look at a painting? How do we understand a painting? How do we create a painting? This series approaches fundamental questions of art from the perspective of painting, particularly abstract painting.

Everything here is readymade. Readymade images, readymade colors, readymade fabric, and a readymade understanding of painting. The various visible visual elements and invisible abstract thoughts serve as the fundamental elements of creation, just like the colors and brushstrokes of painting, and they are combined together according to an internal logic and order.

Painting of Thought is both serious and playful. By imitating the radiant sheen of plastic children's toys, artist permeates the everyday experience of contemporary society, into the painting and to elevate it.
