The complexity and diversity of the current culture, the multiplicity and variability of the artist's personality and character all result in the possibility of diverse artistic expressions. In my life, the existence and conflicts of this multiplicity is vastly obvious. Many people try to typecast me into a certain mode. As a matter of fact, I am an artist who is difficult to label. My work as a whole can hardly be categorized in any current establishment, therefore it appears very marginal and unconventional. It'd be difficult to interpret my work and to summarize me based only on content and form. One needs to let go of the current meassure, throw away the existing rules, and regard me as an artist of complicity and multiformity. This complexity and multiplicity reflects precisely the current Chinese cultural ecology. My work clearly and lamentably embodies this reflection.
