In his South Korean exhibition, which kicked off on March 8, visitors can appreciate realistic lotus images drawn by the monk painter using virtual reality technology.
It is seen as an innovative endeavor for such an exhibition to combine visual art with high tech. Da Chan also won praise for his integration of both Chinese contemporary ink painting and the Zen school of Buddhism.
All his exhibited works were created over the past decade and were displayed in the National Art Museum of China, the Palace Museum as well as the UNESCO center in Macau.
While the exhibition in South Korea closes on Tuesday, the one in Japan will stay open until early June.
