From the expression of flowers to the countenance of human figures, from the posture of history to the shape of time, Wang Yin: Red Peony, Green Peony seeks to weave the artist’s imagery across nearly twenty-five years. Unintentionally, we find ourselves entering several moments that appear disparate—each unfolds through its own context and point of departure, yet together they form multiple pathways for seeing and thinking through Wang Yin’s painting practice.

In the mutual gaze between viewer and painting, the body appears to become a landscape, gathering all the traces by which a person is shaped. Through the deep-mining and repeated retrieval of memory, Wang Yin returns with a quiet tension—one that links the times of the past and of the future. Within this exchange of gazes, we may sense the fragrance that emanates from the depths of time, as well as an anticipation toward the unknown.

From December 7, Mirrored Gardens invites friends to enter Wang Yin’s artistic journey. Wang Yin: Red Peony, Green Peony seeks to share with you this continual process of artistic inquiry.

About the Artist

Wang Yin was born in 1964 in Jinan, Shandong Province, and graduated from the Central Academy of Drama in Beijing, where he currently lives and works.

Trained initially in stage design, Wang integrates emotional experience and intellectual inquiry into the language of contemporary oil painting, transforming historical forms into personal reflections on time and existence. For Wang Yin, painting is both a temporal and existential act—a way of capturing those emotional experiences in life that often remain beneath the threshold of our consciousness.
