“The two artists use oil paintings to illustrate the relationship between daily life and symbolism. These works may be perceived as social texts, which are combinations of signals, signs, and symbols. Simply looking at the objects and scenes described in these paintings, they’re all about the ancient styles of humans, nature and work,” said curator Fan Lin.
