About This Artwork
In Tenacious No.3, Wu renders a figure bent to its limits in a gesture of intense inner concentration. The muted shimmer of silver foil and the fine, deliberate contours create an image suspended between tension and stillness. Through restrained means, the painting reveals a silent strength—a meditation on resilience, vulnerability, and the quiet endurance embedded within the human form.
