Deng Cheng Wen - Lost Youth (迷失青春)
As a hyperrealistic painter, Deng Cheng Wen creates images of striking detail that recreate representation to its highest form. Considering this, the artist also uses this as a conceptual element, further exhibiting his characters in their symbolic identity as the young generation. In 'Lost Youth', we see the artist clearly identify to us that the young woman at the head of the line is from the young generation of China he showcases in his art. However, behind her is a more ambiguous figure, leaving the interpretation open as to whether this is a mother, friend, or teacher. Whatever the connection is, the covered eyes of both women speak volumes to the concept that 'Blindness' may not always be an individual phenomenon, but perhaps a product of the society we live in.
