Camouflage IV
oil on canvas
60x60 inches
2011
I aim to represent soldiers’ complex psychology in my works. The series of Camouflage are
dominated by my usual lush fauna, and the silhouettes of soldiers are not overtly exposed to
the surface of painting. Their authentic self might be disguised by the outline of uniforms of
soldier. The soldiers’ true identity and real story was often forgotten and untold. I want to spotlight
their weakness, uncertainty and distress residing underneath their outspoken bravery, resolution
and mystification. I emphasize the fact that we owe our peaceful world to those who
willingly scarified and died
during the war. I combine organic
shape and geometric
form, objective coloring of
nature and subjective impregnation
of it in my Camouflage
series.
