This painting was created in 2022. This year, the painting style changed sharply, from the usual low and harmonious gray colors to conflicting bright colors. At the same time, it raised a big question mark about life.
When the colors are extremely strong, the reality of the dream becomes more apparent.
Broken glass, ducks escaping with fish in their mouths. Ruins of high-rise buildings, floating fishing boats being towed. Life is an ambiguous sweet dream and nightmare.

Creative themes and style | My works revolve around the creative concept of "The land of humanity, People on the land". The people in the painting are people in nature, and the lines, shapes, and colors are close to nature. The nature in the painting is nature in the eyes of humans, existing in interaction with humans.I don’t pursue a series of works with a fixed and continuous style. I hope that the style of the pictures will synchronize with the changes in my life and always remain oscillating. The performance of the work must be in sync with the development of one's own life in order to be Sincere and powerful. Ideas are later.

The red-haired woman’s body tilts downward, with arms and dress spread open, as though drawn into a dreamlike, weightless space. This sense of floating serves as a metaphor for a “house turned upside down”, expressing the individual’s uncertainty between reality and illusion.
In the lower left, fractured shapes resemble broken glass, from which a duck carrying a fish emerges. This visual rupture not only depicts the breaking of reality but also embodies the fragility of dreams when they are disrupted, highlighting their vulnerability and instability.
The golden-yellow of the dress contrasts sharply with the deep blue background, creating a vivid warm-cool opposition. Yellow symbolizes everyday life and vitality, while blue points toward the unknown and the void. Their confrontation generates a powerful visual tension that intensifies the dreamlike atmosphere.
This painting combines architecture, human figures, dreams, and a sense of falling, making it uniquely narrative within the field of contemporary surrealism. It holds both visual impact for exhibition display and intellectual depth for long-term collecting, particularly for art museums, surrealist-themed shows, or private collections focusing on dreams and the subconscious.
With its strong storytelling and spatial dislocation, the piece lends itself well to psychological, cinematic, or immersive exhibitions. Its large format (190 × 210 cm) and striking color contrasts make it an arresting focal point, suitable as the visual centerpiece in interdisciplinary or public art contexts.
