Master, Oil Painting Department, Sichuan Fine Arts Institute. “I always pay attention to conflicts and merges between different cultures. Different cultures provide people with different perspectives when observing the world. This is why the world is so varied in people’s eyes. By standing in the shoes of others, you can not only understand them better, but more importantly, get to know yourself better.”

Works and intentions:
I have always been interested in observing the conflicts and integration among different cultures which make people look at the world from different perspectives. That is why the world could be seen so differently. Looking at things from another perspective could help us understand each other and more importantly, understand ourselves.
I wouldn’t have realized the tremendous differences in the way how we were educated if not for the onsite exchange program at UWIC Wales. The artworks such as “The Blackboard” and the portraits of those giants in history series are the most ordinary things we saw at schools where our original moral ideas, world views or values were shaped around that time under the influence of such people. However, I am wondering how the westerners or Europeans shaped their values and views? How are the historic giants viewed in their eyes?

Part 2 includes some paintings I scribbled in my notebook when I was living in Wales together with some collected materials. Everybody has his own memory of Wales and mine is just reflected by these paintings that I had dated and touched.
