One Square Meter Sky

Wang Kaifang’s One Square Meter Sky oil painting series takes the sky as the painting object, and breaks through the traditional composition concept with the abstract expression of tension. The stripping of figurative and symbolic marks gives the picture power of hint, allowing every part of the picture have the same discourse power, carrying the instant emotions of the artist in different moments.

At the time of creation, the artist expresses the interpretation of the sky’s piety, intuition, emotion, attitude and viewpoint on the canvas by breaking through the limitations of traditional creative methods and materials, through the spontaneity and symbolism in the use of oil paint. Let the creation of painting itself become an event and ritual, emphasizing the human existence in painting, the sentimental understanding of the great wisdom between heaven and earth, and the artistic reproduction of emotion and heart.

In the eyes of the artist, although the sky is erratic and virtual, the sky is on your head and close to you. Everyone has different square meters of sky at different times and in different places. You can feel it, it takes your breath and message.

Another unique aspect of One Square Meter Sky is the way the viewer sees the painting. Does the sky have directions? The direction is what we think of. Therefore, the paintings of One Square Meter Sky can be freely reversed, and can change with the mood. The sky is like this, no matter how you look up, it is there.

This is the sky above our heads. It is only one square meter, but it is magnificent and infinite. As the artist believes: the great wisdom is around us, creating everything and guarding us at all times. There is infinite wisdom in this square meter, waiting for our constant perception.
