WANG Shuo
For some time, Wang Shuo had
been following a clue we may call “representative indication”. The pictorial
experiments in this period reorganized the fragmented figure images, natural
scenes, and moments of real life to correspond reciprocally with the “indications”,
therefore building an abstract “tendency of momentum”, which had been the focus
of his practice. In recent works, however, we can identify something new: “sketchy
attitude”. This “attitude”, having little bearing on traditional sketch, refers
to the artist’s choice to challenge the “established pictorial styles” and
pursue pictorial accessibility through liberating pictorial media and varying
pictorial approaches. The shift from routine practice to the essence of
painting activates and reorganizes previous experience and new elements.
