A picture paints a 1,000 words (画中有话)

Nestled Ellipsis

In this design we drew our inspiration from the Chinese idiom话中有话, but we decided to put a twist to the idiom and changed the Chinese character from话(word) to 画(painting). Another play of homonyms:)

“A painting, a picture

Sometimes conveys a message

More clearly, precisely…

It pins the emotions down

And captures them in its frame

They are embedded in the pigments, the strokes that brush across the canvas

Permanently

Look deeply and you will find

Unlike words, once spoken

The emotions they carry dilute over time

And soon forgotten

Indeed,

A picture paints a thousand words…"
