Black branches spread across a near-square sheet while yellow blossoms cluster in vivid patches. The plant is not diagrammed botanically. Its growth is communicated through branching direction, changing ink density, and the way color accumulates toward the upper field.
In Wu's late work, bright dots often function like compressed sensations. Yellow does not merely identify flowers; it makes sunlight legible as rhythm. The painting preserves the quickness of a sketch while orchestrating every interval, including the white paper that keeps the dense center from becoming airless.
