Summer Jiang - Painter / Production studio owner / Builder of the 49 Crossings. (Melbourne, Australia)

I paint what I map, and map what I've lived.

I've always believed — if I observe closely, dare to feel everything, stay brave to cross into the unknown and hold, I'll find the pattern. I've never stopped seeking the answer that holds everything. In every such attempt, I feel moving closer to home. You can call it maturity, or wisdom. I call it 49 Crossings. The oversized paintings are its terrain.

  • 1. The Opening: Grounded in Presence

    I begin on the grass, barefoot. No sketch, no hesitation. Just a clean channel and a clear message received in silence. Nature is my co-creator. I don’t second guess.

  • 2. The Paper: Making the Form

    The rice paper is hand-colored and shaped in field-aligned presence. It’s not decoration—it’s residue of intent. Created from nothing, just like the truth it will carry.

  • 3. The Assembly: Essence Revealed

    I tear by hand. I follow what appears. Most pieces are discarded. Only the aligned survive. What remains is glued and painted into place—no fixing, just listening.

  • 4. The Completion: Framed in Precision

    Each work is finished with care—framed, measured, refined. I check every edge with full attention. My dog often joins for final alignment. The vision is now whole.
