Calligraphy 12
35*30cm, 2023
This artwork carries the whimsical essence of a child's drawing, capturing the aesthetic curiosity of a youthful heart to express the relationship between color and calligraphy. It combines Chinese calligraphic techniques with Western painting colors and skills, presenting a unique artistic style.
In the piece, vivid blocks of color and irregular shapes collide, creating a dynamic visual effect. Calligraphic lines in black and other hues weave throughout, possessing the fluidity of traditional Chinese ink work, as well as the free expression of Western abstract art.
This fusion creates a visual language that is both classical and modern, Eastern and Western. The colors are bright and the brushstrokes bold, displaying the innocence and imagination of a childlike perspective. These qualities play freely across the canvas, marrying with more mature and complex artistic techniques.
The calligraphic elements, like the curvature and sweep of the strokes, add movement and rhythm, infusing the piece with life and energy. This painting is more than a visual artwork; it's a celebration of the unfettered creativity of childhood and a profound dialogue between the traditions of Chinese calligraphy and Western painting.
Through this cross-cultural and trans-temporal blend, the artist invites us to reexamine our understanding of art and opens up a world of possibilities.
