About the artwork
With anatomy and busts being his most common subjects, Liu Zheng Yong reveals an expressionist fascination with not only the outpouring of emotion, but the physical manifestation of humanity as well. In this work, the artist’s subjects are rendered evocatively through raw, almost fleshy shades of red, that are vibrantly contrasted with cool tones of blue and purple. Liu clearly defines the contours of the human form through bold brushstrokes, depicting it with honesty, and showcasing them in an inescapable display of life in all its vigour.
About the artist
Born in 1980 in Zhuzhou City, Hunan Province, China, Liu Zheng Hong graduated from Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts in 2004 with a major in oil painting. Armed with textured movement and a vivid sense of colour, Zheng Yong channels the most intrinsic of Chinese sensibilities into a distinctly western medium.
