Exploration of "Chinese" themes. With "lotus" as the theme, a series of works of ancient nobles that are outstanding and profound have been created. Instead of passively reproducing lotus leaves with realistic techniques, the figure modeling and lotus leaf modeling are combined, and the covered lotus leaves are transformed into the clothes of ancient figures, while the figure modeling is abstracted and integrated with the image of lotus leaves. The work pursues a kind of divine beauty of physical state: hidden but not revealed, with profound meaning. Connect the commonalities between "people" and "objects" and find the appropriate artistic language to express them. Many traditional Chinese aesthetics, such as lines, composition, brushwork, and artistic conception, are absorbed and integrated into the composition of the work; the content of the expression is also separated from the concrete factors, and the pure expression of momentum and state; and the use of comprehensive materials also greatly enhances the expressiveness of the work. The beauty of lines, the management of positions, the contrast between the real and the virtual, and the grand and agile atmosphere all reflect the unique connotation of oriental aesthetics.
