Life Among the Rice Paddies

Chang Yun-Ming (1949)

Ink Painting

1999

Length:69 x Width:136 (cm)

Amid the green rice paddies are farmhouses and trees. This is a common scene in Taiwan's rural villages. Within this expression of tranquility is an inherent vitality. This masterpiece praises farm village life. Among Chang's works, scenes of farm life are well represented. There is an air of familiarity as this artist expresses his deep sentiment for the land.
With the rise of the industrial society, Taiwan's fields are gradually being covered in high-rise buildings. As Taiwan's green paddies gradually disappear, perhaps this ink and color painting can initiate a sense of nostalgia among those living in cities.
