“Eternity Dawn”: From the canvas of daily life, Lo Chan Peng’s sense a sanctity, as if any who bathe in it may be redeemed, and an endless love exists between me and my creation. At this moment, life and death, chaos and order, piety and depravity, freedom and constraint, the originally confusing chasm between this shore and the other, all meld into one; and my art lies between this and that. It is a mysterious journey before reaching the other shore.
