Review of  House Inspiring Peace continued:

With House Inspiring Peace, Loewan has constructed for us, a spiritual shelter. Its underlying form (post, lintel, gable, peaked roof) is that of one the simplest and most iconic of house structures – thus, it is the archetypal house, in the Jungian sense. The shuen (rice) paper elements encasing the body of the house -its skin– are complex and coherent, although they are inherently and materially, temporal and fragile. Equally fragile are the many thoughts of peace, penned on strips of shuen paper by viewers over the years; these are woven into the walls of the house’s exterior. Within, ink brushed in traditional Chinese fashion in the artist’s hand, are the philosopher Lao Tzu’s meditations on the nature of peace and the path to its realization. As we stand within House Inspiring Peace, and reflect, we come to realize that we may choose to become, each of us, at the heart of peace.
      The peripheral, perambulatory space that encircles and embraces House Inspiring Peace features the artist’s new open series of 15 smaller paintings: The Contemplations. With this Loewan explores what might be described as an inner, spiritual landscape – revealed and fixed in time as Loewan arrested the effects of numerous washes of complex, luminous colour, in imminent relationship with elemental geometric form. As displayed, the paintings and Arche-TEXTures offer the viewers a walking meditative experience.
