Flow of Light Series
Oil on canvas · 82 × 90 cm · 2021
Transcending is an oil painting from Jingmin Ren’s Flow of Light series. Created intuitively, the work explores transformation, inner strength and the movement towards light through luminous colour, flowing forms and imagined cosmic space.
Moths are often associated with transformation and an instinctive attraction to light. In this painting, they fly beyond the familiar world towards another planet, suggesting a passage from one state of being into another.
Created with love and hope, Transcending reflects the possibility of renewal through life’s challenges. Transformation is presented not as an ending, but as a movement towards freedom, expanded awareness and new beginnings.
The Flow of Light series has been presented in multiple exhibitions and public contexts in Sydney, including at the Chinese Cultural Centre in 2021, and at Bankstown Library and Knowledge Centre in 2023 and 2025. Selected works from the series were also featured in digital presentations in Times Square, New York, and London in 2024, presented by Plogix Gallery.
