The Exorcism, 2017 Acrylic, watercolour, charcoal, pencil, crayon, glue, paper, cardboard This collage is a self-portrait and a metaphor. It integrates paintings of some of the artists who have influenced me and who I have admired. In fact, it is a form of self-criticism and purification, facilitating a diverged path towards greater originality, away from excessive referencing. The collage also signifies an acknowledgement of the traditional artists whose tenets have restrained and even colonised my own. My face full of Freud’s brushwork, my eyes obstructed and superseded by van Gogh’s, and my ears covered by the sunflowers, all left me defaced, blind, and hard of hearing. My window, my furniture…even the father looking at me belongs to the work of Gauguin... @puarchive #vincentpuzhang #puarchive #acrylicpainting #portrait #collage #selfportrait #abstractart #painting #artist #art #artwork

The Old Carpenter, 2016 Oil on canvas The elder is a farmer and carpenter living deep in the Taihang Mountains. Isolated from civilisation, the diligent and rigorous master has built his own stone house not aided by modern tools. He invents tools, designs sophisticated furniture, and builds them. I was deeply moved by his ingenuity and generosity. @vincentpuzhang #vincentpuzhang #vpzart #oilpainting #portrait

Imaginary Mangosteen, 2004 Pencil on paper, Photoshopped in 2016 I created this drawing at the age of six when being particularly passionate about reimagining the structure of plants and other organisms.
