About the artwork

In Gao Xiaowu's Rebirth series, he addresses the issue of renewal and awakening of primeval nature, choosing climbers and creepers (plant types) as the base image. He calls upon poetic notions, the portrayal of tranquil forms, exaggeration, metaphors and other techniques to showcase the deconstruction and regeneration of the natural world, attempting to use the beauty of rebirth and renewal to awaken the dreams and visions humans have of the purest beginnings of nature.
