The extreme imbalance between material and cultural developments affects the socity in many aspects. The inner didstortion of Humans,warped by intense desires,darkens the soul and humanity and infinitum...
The artworks in the "Flowers Pink" series are pessimistic, helpless,futile and interwoven with violence and ambiguity. Full of tensions and conflicts,they depict a crisis in the trust worthiness and lack of sincenity between people.The artist had adopted the curently favoured cynical,fuffian and indifferent attitude and form in this series of artworks to mock and criticize China and even the pretentious and sickening people in the society
Is it fighting, teasing or struggling? The expression, posture and body exude determination and immense strength. Yet there are helpessness,mischief and pretensions. The body is untight,ridiculous and weird but there is also a soft side that drifts and homeless and lost
All these superficial expressions and faise show of strength are mere tricks that already lead to exhaustion from the start. The natural strength,physical and mental,of a human body is not sufficient to tackle the issues on hand.
