One of the most magical properties of Wu’s painting style was to highlight and intertwine calm with intensity. Paintings like ‘It’s All Green To Me’ are the perfect example of the crucial importance of color to convey meaning. No fewer than seven shades of blue-green are carefully placed each with considered flashes of highlight and shadow. Tiny red Yin and Yang create garden gate boundaries between Heaven and Earth, their smallness setting an enormous scale for the overgrown vegetation. The impression is flighty abstraction but the impact is laden with symbology and the cloying invocation of verdant summer.
