LIU Xiu

BIOGRAPHY

"When I look around as the forth person, I would see those things in my painting." - Liu Xiu
Liu Xiu never observes the world as the first person or beholder. He always stands far away and observes things quietly as the forth person. He never takes part in and never discuss. He also does not criticize or have any stand. He only describes the essence of things directly through his works.

When people are facing happenings, they always criticize things by first impressions according to their personal experiences, personal emotions, personalities, and social moral judgments. Liu endeavors to eliminate this kind of criticism. He tries to come off the state of human and stands on the position beyond "You", "Me" and "Him/Her". In addition, he uses his humorous style to put the happenings and problems on his painting without any analysis.
