Leoss Plateau 6

300*150cm, 2017

This oil painting captures the undulating and overlapping majesty of the loess highlands, which has deeply influenced the artist.

Through a romantic and earthy palette of terracotta reds and an approach that borders on abstraction, the artist expresses the intrinsic charm and spiritual essence of the Loess Plateau. The brushwork is dynamic and textured, conveying the rugged and raw beauty of the landscape. The use of earth tones, combined with vibrant splashes of color, reflects the rich tapestry of the land, from its fertile soil to the varied hues that come with the changing seasons. The composition is layered and complex, much like the Plateau itself, with each brushstroke and color choice contributing to an overall sense of depth and vitality. The artwork goes beyond a literal interpretation of the terrain, offering instead a visceral and emotive representation that seeks to connect viewers to the land's ancient and enduring spirit.

In this piece, the Loess Plateau's natural forms are reimagined through an artistic lens that highlights their timeless and awe-inspiring nature, creating a visual poem that pays tribute to the land's enduring beauty and the emotional impact it has on those who behold it.
