The seven rising artists in 《Ink Flux 》demonstrate that Chinese ink art not only carries the weight of history but also possesses the capacity for continuous fluidity and self-transformation. At the intersection of historical depth and contemporary consciousness, Chinese ink art remains an aesthetic and cultural narrative still in the process of becoming：
• Dai Junpeng (China, b.1996): Continues the dialectical spirit of the tangible and intangible in landscape painting, responding to contemporary viewing with an aura of “emptiness” and “elegance” , seeking balance between subjective brushwork and natural imagery.
• Dai Yinglun （China, b. 1987): Employs a scattered, flattened style depicting the myriad states of life. Transcending a binary perspective, he illustrates a dual observation of both the collective and the individual, establishing a lively and vibrant visual language.
• Eunice CHEUNG Wai Man
(HK, b.1986): With meticulous gongbi, she depicts an anthropomorphic, hyper-realistic aesthetic of birds, flowers, and animals, emphasising animal protection and a creative philosophy that respects all living things.
• Li Liangchen（China, b. 1997): Uses blue-and-green as a landscape filter, combining text collage and fragmented symbols. Situated between classical motifs and modern narratives, invite the viewer to wander and dwell.
• Tseng Ting Yu（Taiwan, b.1983 ): Researches “ink art that departs from ink" painting, deconstructing the ways brush, ink, paper, and inkstone are perceived, while exploring connections between “the self,” “ink” “the land.”
• Wu Huaheng（China, b.1988) : Delves deep into the material properties of ink and paper. With a stark contrast between “extreme black” and “hard-edged white,” he constructs a unique visual language that challenges the traditional boundaries of brush and ink.
• Ying Yefu (China, b. 1985) : Applies traditional gongbi line drawing with a slightly raw, single-line flat-fill style to figure painting—a new practice that renders the composition bizarre yet imbued with dramatic tension.
