About the Artwork
Unbound by the constraints of reality, yet deeply respectful of its existence, Xiantang Hou's mountains exude strength, majesty, and fantasy.
In this painting, Hou skillfully reimagines the conventional use of negative space, relocating it to the bottom of the composition, creating an illusionary landscape in which the towering summit in the foreground appears to float in the sky like a mystical island.
Titled "Alchemy," this painting captivates with its reference to a mythical legend, drawing inspiration from the ancient Chinese tradition of alchemy.
The towering cliffs, like unwavering sentinels, provide a secure haven and a tranquil sanctuary for those seeking enlightenment. Positioned at the base of the mountain is the alchemist, surrounded by a sinuous pine tree, a group of flying birds, and an expansive open area, hinting at the infinite potenials for inner discovery.
In the upper left corner, the distant mountains are depicted in an array of gray tones, suggesting a far-reaching expanse. The nearby peaks, awash in mineral shades of azurite and vermilion, create a bold yet serene equilibrium, evoking the harmony of yin and yang in the universe.
