“I believe that the real contemporary art should turn objects into forms and symbols to express the spiritual world.”
In Dong Su's artworks, he tries to explore the self-reflection of life and experience, and the obser-vation and understanding of the world to express the visual image. His focus is usually on the con-stituent element of symbolism to convey the original emotion and intuition.
Beauty is always fragile | Acrylic
$1,400
Most of the area of this painting used low purity colors to express my hope for beautiful things. At the same time, the segmentation of the picture also implies the opposite of things.
In the past, he mainly painted figurative subjects such as figures, landscapes, still life and so on. The reason why he chose to use abstract elements for artistic creation is that he got rid of the shackles brought by concrete painting in abstract modeling, could more accurately express his personal thoughts, and could fully knead rationality and sensibility.
Step into rhythm | Acrylic
$1,800
I believe that bright colors will quickly catch people's attention, especially bright yellow, which will bring the audience to a happy rhythm.
He believes that abstract art actually peels off the appearance of familiar things, shapes and depicts the feelings of things at the painter's personal consciousness level, and can more convey the paint-er's personal spiritual world. Therefore, there is usually no specific meaning in his paintings.
“As a full-time artist, Dong Su has worked with abstract art for more than 20 years.”
The emotions in his works are brought in naturally and never deliberately, He tried to make himself graffiti like a child who can't draw. He said that although it was difficult, it would bring unexpected results. In the final analysis, his works are more direct self-expression and communication with the world.
A brisk moment | Acrylic
$2,200
Arranging some random color blocks and free lines on a slightly empty background will make the whole atmosphere of the work look relaxed and comfortable.
I feel the joy of graffiti, but also control the balance of color and shape.
Back to where we were | Mixed Media
$1,900
In his artworks, he likes to try various media and themes. It often starts with no specific subject matter about what you want to do. Most of the time, this idea is based on reality, such as architec-ture, nature, and even inspired by a part of his work.
“Since he came into contact with abstraction, he found that this is the artistic expression to be sought in his life, and devoted all his energy and enthusiasm to the research and creation of abstract art.”
“In more than 20 years, Dong Su has painted more than 8000 abstract works in different medium, including acrylic, oil painting, watercolor, metal and comprehensive materials.”
Sometimes he scrapes or covers new paint on the basis of previous works, rather than simply start-ing over on a new canvas until the desired painting appears on the canvas. The act of scraping and adding new paint layers sometimes takes his idea to a new direction, constantly building new com-positions and colors on the original picture.
Let Your Senses Wander | Acrylic
$1,400
Create colors, lines and textures in a space of less than a few square feet, let your eyes wander on the picture, feel different effects and feel the breath of the picture.
The process of scraping is sometimes easy and sometimes difficult, resulting in a picture different from his original intention. This process itself also represents the thinking process of the artist, re-veals the past and present of the work, and finally constitutes the final work.
Stay far away | Mixed Media
$2,900
Some things can only be seen from a distance. The perspective from a distance will bring different feelings.
When he was creating abstract art works, he felt the spiritual freedom and spiritual sublimation, immersed in the beauty of abstract art, but also felt the pain of the artist before breaking through himself, constantly exploring and interpreting the mysteries of art, and constantly improving.
The black and gray that occupy the majority of the picture imply the negative things of human beings, while the yellow and green that appear faintly in the gap imply the responsibilities we need to bear.
The mission | Acrylic
$1,300
“When he is creating art, he only considers the things related to vision, such as color, shape, texture, etc., and never deliberately adds anything other than vision.”
Time precipitation | Acrylic
$2,000
Everything will lose its luster with the passage of time, but art will not. It will settle down with time and become our precious spiritual wealth.
A real artist should have the spirit of experiment and exploration. In the process of creation, Dong Su always intentionally or unintentionally denies what he has painted before, will not succumb to the aesthetic requirements of the audience and collectors, always explores and looks for newer and more unique ways of expression, and constantly explores the essence of things and the origin of art.
This character is abstracted, dancing heartily on the stage and expressing their emotions. Just like we can express our emotions freely in life.
The dancer | Acrylic
$4,700
Dong Su believes that there is no need for the audience to interpret his works too much, and he is unwilling to explain his works too much. What you see is what you want to see. Everyone has differ-ent experience, interest, cultural background and aesthetics, and has different feelings about the works. It is enough for the audience to see what they are excited about from his works, which is ex-actly what the artist wants.
Indelible light | Acrylic
$6,000
Perhaps it is the last ray of sunshine blooming in the sunset. Although it disappears quickly, the memory can be retained..This work won the FIRST PRIZE in ART SHOW INTERNATIONAL GALLERY’s 4th ABSTRACT competition.
“While creating abstract art works, I'm often fascinated by nature.”
