Yin Yang dragon

Description

Yin Yang Dragon

“The integration of yin and yang. That is the key to maintaining harmony.”
陰と陽の統合。それが調和を保つ術の鍵となっている。

This circular painting expresses the eternal dance of opposing forces — light and shadow, stillness and motion, heaven and earth.
Created with high-purity precipitated indigo, mica natural pigments, and egg tempera on handmade Japanese paper, this work reflects the balance between ancient Japanese tradition and contemporary vision.

Indigo, a sacred plant pigment used for centuries in Japan, brings a deep spiritual resonance — symbolizing purification, creation, and flow.
Through the dragon’s form, the painting invites the viewer into the harmony that arises when opposites meet.
