The work uses mirror, hand-cut calligraphy, and paper to transform written language into a reflective surface. Rather than presenting the word as a flat inscription, the mirror allows the viewer to become part of the artwork, suggesting that persistence is not something given from outside, but something repeatedly recognised within oneself. The sharp cut forms and muted grey surface carry a direct physicality that connects to Alex Fu’s background in tattooing, where line, body, and identity meet. As a collected work, it holds strong value as both a conceptual object and a contemporary Chinese calligraphy piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"1acisrw\" data-start=\"1598\" data-end=\"1606\"\u003e作品概念\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1608\" data-end=\"1771\"\u003e《堅持》以鏡作為作品核心，讓文字不只被觀看，也反過來映照觀看者。堅持不是一句口號，而是人在低位、停頓、懷疑之中，仍然選擇向前的狀態。Alex Fu 將書法筆勢轉化成手工切割的形態，字與鏡面、紙面、空間互相重疊，令「堅持」不再只是文字，而像一個需要自己面對自己的提醒。作品帶有書法的力量，也有紋身文化中對身體、身份與意志的敏感。\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-section-id=\"mpktq3\" data-start=\"1773\" data-end=\"1793\"\u003eAbout the Artist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1795\" data-end=\"2226\"\u003eAlex Fu is a Hong Kong Chinese calligraphy artist and tattoo artist whose work connects written language, body, skin, and identity. His practice moves between paper, mirror, and skin, treating Chinese characters as emotional forms shaped by pressure, rhythm, and lived experience. Coming from tattoo culture, his calligraphy carries a physical directness, while his Hong Kong background gives the work a contemporary cultural edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2228\" data-end=\"2272\"\u003e中文補充：Alex Fu 的作品將書法、紋身與香港當代身份感連結成一種東方文字藝術語言。\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alex Fu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48242912526581,"sku":"AF-2025-SHD-002","price":12400.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0706\/8418\/0725\/files\/PERSISTENCE.png?v=1780646503"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0706\/8418\/0725\/collections\/IMG_2891.jpg?v=1780904016","url":"https:\/\/alexfucalligraphy.com\/collections\/shadow-series.oembed","provider":"Alex Fu Calligraphy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
