Cultural Icon I, Guang-Yu Zhang

Guardian Lion is a typical element from Chinese culture as well as one of the representative cultural symbols in Chinese history. The artist paints the lion’s figure abstractly by his own brush strokes, showing a neutral abstract visual experience. Lion’s image is transformed from the objective reality, into a subjective impression while disseminating, becoming a cultural imprint. The cultural imprint is both a Lion Stone itself and an abstract feeling about the Chinese culture. The Artist used the medium of oil painting on canvas to create his impression of the Chinese symbol - Lion Stone. Showing the status of the Lion Stone from the objective to the subjective impression.
