The sequence of Fung’s artistic process is embedded in the layers of this work. First, he wrote a series of numbers in light grey ink before quickly painting over them with a brush loaded with dark grey ink. The interaction between these two shades of wet ink makes the numbers spread and “bloom” where the dark ink is thickest. The last few strokes of this upper layer were applied as the brush ran out of ink, leaving brushy streaks that produce a different effect. Next, Fung used a razor blade to excise arrow shapes from the paper, pointing to elements of the layers beneath. Finally, he finished the work by affixing a seal with his name squarely in the center. Thus, while the formal elements seem balanced and strictly two-dimensional, the work may be read as a record of Fung’s artistic process unfolding in time.
