About the artwork

In a lush landscape, a young child pursues her path with her back to us. Determined and calm at the same time, she confronts this untouched natural world, forging her own path. The viewer is invited to follow her on this dreamlike journey through the valleys and hills. With a deliberately naïve touch and a joyful palette, Ma Dan produces works with a contemplative atmosphere where time seems suspended.

Expert opinion

This painting is representative of Ma Dan's work. It features all the hallmarks of the Chinese artist: a colorful palette, a black-haired child with his back to us and a dreamlike landscape. While Ma Dan's practice is still somewhat confidential in Europe, it is becoming increasingly popular in Asia and the United States.

A monographic catalog was dedicated to her after several solo exhibitions at the Amy Li Gallery in Beijing. She is also represented by Pellas Gallery in Boston.
