About the artwork

Wang Tiande’s layered technique opens up a new vision to the connection of contemporary and traditional representation with the process of art-making. He challenges the audience to follow the movement of transformation in his compositions and uses multiple depictions of scenery that are divided into vertical sections and disconnect expectations of a narrative mind from viewer’s eyes. In his art, he discusses parallel universes of his visions that expand and develop individually, while at the same time augmenting each other’s existences.
