■ Two exhibitions at Great Art Space

This style is embodied in his paintings: the neat strokes created by scrapers, straightforward lines, relaxed character postures, and simple narrative. It is also realized in the artist’s creation process: Sometimes just because he found a pleasing color in the paint material store, the artist would take it home, set a background, add characters, and complete the exploration of a new work in a state of “playing for fun.”
