Marqué par des cultures différentes, Sen Chung crée
un univers poétique et lyrique. Il mélange les sujets quotidiens
et mythiques sans distinction, ce qui démultiplie
les possibilités imaginaires. Sa technique traverse
la frontière qui sépare les surfaces transparentes proches
de l'aquarelle, des textures typiques de la peinture à l'huile.
