One of Those in 2023 art by Su Xiaobai

One of Those in 2023 demonstrates Su Xiaobai's mastery of lacquer as both a material and a process. Built through numerous layers of pigment, linen, and lacquer, the work possesses a luminous surface that changes subtly as light moves across it. Fine textures and delicate imperfections reveal traces of the artist's hand and the gradual evolution of the painting over time. By transforming a traditional craft material into a contemporary abstract form, Su creates a work that rewards close observation and encourages reflection on material, history, and change.
