Notes
A circular yin & yang symbol is in the center of the triptych. Near the top and bottom of the work, Kai included five trigrams (Ba Gua) used in Taoist cosmology. The five white lines in the upper left corner of the blue canvas form the symbol for water. Near the lower edge of the red canvas, three blue lines form the symbol for heaven, while six red lines form the symbol for earth at the top of the white canvas. A white star is near the bottom edge of the blue canvas and a red triangle appears in the lower right corner of the white canvas.
