Author Biography

Leon Sun is currently serving as the creative director and chief strategy officer at Shangxia, a high-end Chinese lifestyle brand. He was formerly the editorial director and chief content officer for the Chinese edition of Elle Decoration, one of the world’s most influential home and design lifestyle media outlets. With nearly 20 years of experience in the media industry, he is a seasoned professional.

Mo Hen regards painting on screens as an unexpected journey toward self-realization, originating from tea and fueled by a fascination with Eastern aesthetics, yet having taken a unique path. His brushwork inherits the legacy of the Song and Yuan dynasties, specifically from Mu Xi and Liang Kai, and is deeply influenced by Zen Buddhism.
