Description of Talk:
The author recalls her early years in France—studying at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts and working in a gallery—where European literature and art opened new horizons of inspiration. Through her creative journey, she seeks harmony amid Eastern and Western cultural contrasts. Though the title evokes spiritual figures, the talk is not on religion.
About Chung-hing:
