Good Goose NO.6

The “Swan” series originated from a solo exhibition by Wang Mai in 2017. The exhibition venue was founded by a financial institution, which represented a field that frequently referenced “black swan” events. The “Swan” series is based on this specific context, where the artwork and exhibiting institution echo each other.

The swans instigate beautiful ripples in the water, and these carefully drawn ripples are simple and elegant, displaying an ineffable beauty. The artist takes the eternal grace of the “white swan” to confront the unpredictable “black swan,” contrasting states of balance and imbalance in the works against the background of the changing world.
