Catalogue Note
Childhood dreams gave us a carefree imagination through which we can still return to find the pure and secure place already forgotten about a long time ago. I...believe in the co-existence of the idea and the illusion...[and] my paintings are a kind of prompt for society, detailed inquiries into the truth through which one may catch a glimpse of the indistinct and irregular beauty of life. - Guo Jin
