Li Fang

  Bedazzlement.
  And this un painted.
  Blank canvas, empty. Bathed in sunlight.
 

And this black which obscures the pupil, the faces.

  Great expanses of colour. Pure. Faded.
 

It's like a breeze carrying colours..

    Burning, eroding, bringing life to the body.
    And the eye. And the mind. Elsewhere..
         
    Michel Nau.
