Media: mixed media Size: 60 x 75cm Year of Creation: 2020 Leaving blank space is a common technique in traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy. The blank space intentionally left makes the work seem harmonious and delicate, giving people more room for imagination. In Western art, this is not particularly emphasized. It is said that Picasso admired Chinese paintings, and he painted several large albums imitating Qi Baishi’s ink works. While since the beginning of the 20th century, until now, many Chinese artists go to France, Britain, the United States and other countries to study art. Of course, Chinese and Western art are quite different, and each has its own evolution and styles. However, if I put the two in the same image, how will it be? Can it be harmonious? I have tried many ways to answer this question, and the series Blank Space is a relatively satisfactory answer. Several classic oil paintings are slightly modified: the central characters of the picture are replaced with Chinese-style blank space and ink, and they place themselves in the colors and strokes of the oil paintings. This may just be a blend of Chinese painting and oil painting in terms of techniques, but it also confirms one of my viewpoints all along: the Chinese and Western cultures are indeed far apart, but they can have contact with each other, and the possibility of dialogue always exists.
