Jessie Wei
Jasmine techniques such as Sound healing using Singing bowls and Gongs. The way she broke into painting is through her teachings of Zen while tapping into the buddha conscience following her intuitions. She is a Contemporary Abstract expressionist that follows no rules breaking all boundaries while detached from all expectations. Just like her sound healing, her paintings begins from nowhere that has no ending, her paintings heal. The lines she paints calls to her. Visualizing the infinity of light and the shadow with a pure mind and Zen state. Jasmine navigates a line in a meditative state formulating unity into a formless spectrum into microscopic particles harmonizing her emotions in minute details. Connecting vision, sound and emotions.
