Description One can virtually feel the hot sun that sends its heat on the soil and the humans in the rural farmland areas of Southern Yunan. The peasant woman carries a huge load, bent forward to balance the heavy bundle on her back. Interesting that Zhang Xiaochun creates the impression of the hot sun with white clouds, not with a yellow color. Instead he used red and yellow colors with very little green for the depiction of the person and the field in the background and parts of the sky. The whole image looks like a symphony of fire.
Note "I began to pay attention to the common people living in the border areas. I finally found the position of humanities and religion in my mind. I explored the reasons for the existence of human beings."
(Zhang Xiaochun)
