Spring signifies a pivotal milestone in artist creative journey. This piece, enriched by her deep connection with Chinese literature and music, marked Liu's evolution in painting language and creative expression. Her subsequent works masterfully blend personal and collective expression, aligning Eastern philosophy with personal experiences. Just like the dormant potential in withered wood awaiting spring, Liu's art embodies an inherent vitality and acceptance of the cyclical nature of life. The symbolic use of "wood" for decay and "spring" for time underscores the natural rhythm of existence in her work.
