CONTEMPORARY ART REVIEW
China Pavilion , the original painting was remade into a 3D animated digital version titled River of Wisdom . I am now adopting this again into a contemporary manner by using video footage which I have recorded at Tianamen square in Beijing . My work will particularly make reference to tourists who are today mostly populating the square and to the Tianamen square protests in 1989 . So the topic is now the public space , and my interpretation of the theme is about citizenship and the relationship of the individual and society . I always had planned to make three video paintings related to Eastern scroll paintings because I finally want to show them together as a triptych .
