The Boiling World

This art is my abstract representation of a geopolitical world full of continuously heated disputes with bleakness. I sense that our world is in" hot water," which means we face a complex and more dangerous situation if world leaders miscalculate the situation. As the war continues, more deaths are to come, and global economic uncertainty continues; sanctions imposed on Russia by western countries will substantially impact them, perhaps to retaliation, and vice versa. Thus, it's like fighting fire with fire. I made this painting that depicts the ongoing political issue about the continuing heated dispute geopolitics in Ukraine. Current politics in Ukraine is indeed in hot water. If no one likes to lie low or give way on both sides, and this war continues, where this political misunderstanding leads the world, what will its future global effect be?

This multi-colored textured acrylic house paint on the mat board is my very first experimental art. A combination of nature and intention is the two phases in my artistic approach in my multi-colored art medium. By scattering random acrylic house paints on the mat board panel using merely primary colors, wrapping it up with clustered recycled and unsorted kinds of cellophane (such as plastic grocery bags), and allowing one to three weeks of curing time is my first phase of the process. After a week of healing time or more, I will carefully remove the laid kinds of cellophane from my base art panel. I will then set it aside for final drying and flattening. The fun part of this process is that it always provides unexpected results; I call it "my surprise art." Once my base art panel is dried and flattened, the second and final phase comes into play. I will then examine the art piece by viewing it from various angles and reading what nature art gave me by analyzing the appearance, shape, texture, and colors. I will then complete the story through my wild imagination by incorporating related art ideas I have in mind for the final touch revealing the textured marbling and rainy effect, the crater-like texture, and the obscurity of my art characters.
