"Stones appear to be not only in solid form, but also in various states - liquid, solid and gaseous. We will see that not every stone is complete – it can be partially solid, and its other parts may be gaseous or fluid. This painting reflects what we think after looking into the sky –coming up with various assumptions, and imagining different possibilities."  -- Tai Xianzghou
