Emerald Bay
LI DEZHUANG
Li Dezhuang, born in Singapore, Wenchang Guangdong native, graduated from the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts. This special location where eastern and western cultures clashing together gave him a broader vision and a sense of collaboration within artistic creation. He’s spent an almost 20-year time in the international environment to create, experiment, explore and transfer, his expression skills sharpened, and his aesthetics sophisticated. He combined the languages of the west and the east and came out with his own unique idiom of abstract art.
Emerald Bay adopts bright colors to portray the water with a sense of aggression but also of transparence and purity. Colorful overlapping is full of liveliness and artistic appealing, staging as a sign of endless and boundless joy of the nature, like a vigorous but at the same carefree symphony of lives. Expressionism has long been a major feature of Chinese aesthetics, as well as an essential part of Chinese culture, and this painting is a delicate and powerful example of this aspect.
