Long River, Setting Sun
Time enters the river
Sulfur dioxide, coal dust, and iron rust on canvas, 2022 — a winding white path merges river, road, and time, leading into the blazing horizon.
This work reimagines Wang Zhihuan’s iconic verse “Long River, Setting Sun Round.” The meandering white line becomes both river and traveler’s road, evoking themes of distance, persistence, and the inexorable passage of time beneath the setting sun.
