New Grand ceremony

2018

Acrylic,  marker on cutted canvas

120×40cm

*The Founding Ceremony of PRC is a famous historical painting by Chinese painter Dong Xiwen in 1953. In the past, the painter was asked to revise the painting many times, mainly concerning the removal and replacement of politicians in the 1950s, 60s and 70s for political reasons.

*Painting of "New Founding Ceremony of PRC" was manually painted after digitally simulating the original work and generating errors. I intended to mix and break the original painting logic. The error-production mode based the conversion of a plane from 3D to 2D in a 3D virtual modeling.The process enabled me to experience the painting process of previous creators from a modern perspective: four revisions witnessed changes to this painting, and now five time in total, while there will be more. . . .

*Triptych can be related with the typical way of historical painting, while the cutted canvas implies that part of the original image has been removed and restored.
