Xi Guo Demonstration

“For me, a Taoist, life and death are the alternation of seasons. Birth and death are like coming from the “Tao” and going back to the “Tao”. By my paintings, both nature and portraits, I am seeking the beauty of the forms of lives, delightful and ugly, booming and straggling, flourishing and dead.

My paintings are also about the need for something that can take viewers out of here, out of themselves, even if they know that everything is phantom, everything, excluding nothing, is not permanent, even if it is just for a moment. It’s about investigating the impermanence of images, thoughts, realities and dreams.”
