After experiencing personal and duet interaction in Taichi series, Ju Ming transformed the active combat into a modern abstract language to emphasize on “using no way as a way” and to return to the foundation of the behavior. He elevated the essence of Taichi into the “Taichi Series: Arch” series which is the ultimate practice of taichi. “Taichi Series: The Door to Success” was created in 1995. The carves on the copper sculpture is smooth and sleek, the transection shows the speed of the artist. Extending the geometric forms, Ju Ming presented the duet combat and pusher form in an abstract approach. The curves and continual moves bring momentum. When both opponent strikes, the core belief of Taichi are present and strengthen the flow. By blurring the characters, Ju Ming successfully sent his message of “eternal life, eternity without boundaries”.  The sculpture complete interpreted the deepest thoughts and feelings of the artist for Chinese traditional beliefs.
