Celina Liu's paintings explores the delicate balance between contemporary societal pressures and the human longing for solace. Using cherry blossom trees as central motifs, the works evoke memory, home, and identity, portraying nature as a vessel that carries both personal and collective histories. The fragile, transient blossoms reflect moments of introspection and fleeting calm, offering a visual refuge from the isolation and expectations faced by people today. Through these paintings, Liu seeks to create spaces of quiet beauty, inviting viewers to reconnect with memories and emotions that resonate deeply within them. Nature becomes both a mirror and a sanctuary, capturing the weight of lived experience while providing a serene escape.
