Leoss Plateau 1

300*150cm, 2018

The painting is a pastoral scene rendered with intensely saturated colors, a romanticized vision of the loess landscape.

The artist's use of such vibrant hues gives the natural scenery a lyrical and majestic quality, symbolizing the enduring spirit of the land and its inhabitants. The dominant yellow tones evoke the characteristic color of the loess soil, associated with fertility and the sustenance of life. This bright, sun-drenched palette may reflect the optimism and vitality that the land imparts to the people who live in it. The reds and greens add depth and contrast, highlighting the rich tapestry of the land and the life it supports.

The sweeping gestures and textured paint application suggest the vastness of the fields and hills, while the vivid colors could be seen as a celebration of the land's inherent beauty.

The scene is both an homage to the physical landscape and a metaphor for the cultural and emotional wealth that the earth represents for the communities that depend on it. This painting is a vibrant and soulful interpretation of the loess landscape, filled with emotion and meaning. It’s a depiction not just of a place, but of an idea β€” that the land is a source of endless regeneration and hope for the people who call it home.
