In this unusually hot summer, Zhang Xiaohong's artwork is cool and vibrant, based on realism, and cathartic through nature's lush landscapes. That's why her exhibition is coming at the end of August, when the heat is at its peak.

Zhang Xiaohong's paintings combine elements of reality with conceptualism to present a unique style of painting that depicts reality in an unrealistic way. She uses strategies such as subjectivization of color and compression of images to create a flat and abstracted effect. Her visual image world is filled with beautiful memories of the past youth, as well as serious thoughts and passionate expressions about the changing social reality.

 

She said, "The core theme of the series of works I have created in the past two years is joy and love. They capture not only the great love and brotherhood of human beings, but also the joy of friendship, love and affection, and the love of oneself and the joy we feel when we are alone. Before that, most of my works explored the realm of solitude, such as the 'Hermit' and 'Invisible Man' series, mainly expressing people's hidden life or hidden emotions. My current work, which is completely different from before, seems to be a departure from the loneliness of the past, and I face life with a more optimistic and positive attitude. In the new images, I am no longer

filled with a sense of loneliness and isolation, and I have found my own happiness by paying more attention to the exploration of bright emotions."
