The Shape of Volition   Zhang Tinqun`s artistic expression is the crystallization of empirical exploration and interpolation on manifestations of the human consciousness harnessing volition and life-force into palpable artworks. Guided by Buddhist pursuits of self-cultivation, day after day and year after year, Zhang Tingqun yields his brush on paper and canvas with unfaltering attention and unwavering steadfastness. Charged with serene mindfulness and fluid momentum, the uninterrupted coherence of his motivation and will coupled with the ebb and flow of his breath, send forth a pulse which sets forth the most natural course and shape for each brush stroke. The visible continuity of seamlessly fused irregularities extends into an endless and complex mesh of intertwining linear and ecliptic forms. Hence, just as Imagery and imagination find representation, the essence of being and willing find expression through the mind-body unison at the core of Zhang Tingqun`s creative process.   As the brush delivers this will to its destination, it traces a myriad paths and intersections, rendering the individuality and singularity of each thread of paint inextricable form the entanglement and profusion of the stratified pattern. The confluence of chance and consequence, occurrence and outcome, overlap in the paradigm of nature`s expanse and inherent simplicity, gliding through time and space vectored by the artist`s self-determination. The dense disarray of disparate fine lines, bends and curves in tightly knit webs depict the ultimate chaos- the potential and impetus beyond systems of order and matter - while also alluding to the self-regulating equilibrium and intricate balance that prevails in nature.
