Thoughts While Creating

What is stronger? A tree that is rigid and snaps in a strong wind or a bamboo that is flexible and bends to the wind?

​

Bamboo, one of the “Four Gentlemen” (bamboo, orchid, plum blossom and chrysanthemum), plays an important role in traditional Chinese culture and is even regarded as a model of behavior.

​

Ancient Chinese poets wrote countless poems to praise bamboo and its qualities of uprightness, tenacity, and flexibility. According to laws, an ancient poet, Bai Juyi (772–846), thought that to be a gentleman, a man must be upright, perseverant, as well as flexible.
