缅甸霞光

Myanmar Twilight

中国画

Chinese painting

136cm×68cm 2016

水墨大写意因水、墨的透明性和交融性，加之生宣纸渗化的不确定性，往往呈现出其不意的效果，暗含了水墨艺术所特有的东方神韵。作品描绘了有“佛塔之国”之称的缅甸，霞光中的浦甘佛塔摆脱了客观的描摹，被抽离出欢快奔放的意象，注入自由的生命力和视觉冲击力。

Because of the transparent and blending nature of ink as well as theunpredictable absorbency of rice paper, freehand brushwork often breedsunexpected results. This technique suggests the characteristic oriental charmof ink wash paintings. This particular work portrays Myanmar, also known as“The Country of Pagodas”. The Bagan Pagoda amid the twilight breaks away fromobjective depiction and elicits bold, lively imageries. Imbuedwith unrestrained vitality, this painting is visually stunning.

The artist painted the figure in a Mogu style [ink paintings withoutoutlines], allowing him to portray the girl’s innocent and prettyvisage with rich textures. Contrastingly, he realizes her clothes and theanimal in a rather minimalist fashion, with vigorous if not rough strokes ofhis brush and ink. The artist handles very well the relationship between voidsand solids in the background.
