I am trying to figure out the existence of imagery in connection with unconscious psychological motivations, trying to figure how imagery appears from this connection in a feedback loop with the physical world. The inspiration of catching unconscious imagery comes from a desire for talking and expressing after a long time of personal isolation. This isolation has not only been spatial but also cultural. In the past two years, I lived in China and Italy and these two countries both made me feel out of place. In the silent COVID years in China, my practice was stopped due to reasons including miscommunication as well as space limits and time difference. My mind was isolated. But when I went to Italy and participated in studio art again, the cultural differences and extremly unknown surroudings also made me feel that I couldn\u2019t locate myself. The constant pains of loss and isolation produced a desire for shouting and reconstructing a connection to my surroundings, especially at the moment when I had strong and uncontrollable psychologial impulses, so that I found myself able to capture these strongest impulses in paint.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_enable_color=&#8221;off&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||100px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Times New Roman|800|||||||&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;40px&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Featured Works<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=&#8221;#D6D6D6&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;20%&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-1px||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;Window on the Metro Line A&#8221; image=&#8221;https:\/\/yanluartsandculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/\u738b\u6893\u51e1-\u7ad9\u53f0\u4e0a\u7684\u5bf9\u671b.jpeg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Times New Roman||||||||&#8221; body_font=&#8221;Times New Roman||||||||&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Wang Zifan, Oil on canvas, <span>172 cm x 191 cm, 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chinese Contemporary ArtistsWang Zifan Wang Zifan was born in 1997 in Sichuan, China.
