Artist frames the spirit of combating outbreak

The artist has mixed feelings when creating the works. "My feelings fluctuate with the changes of the epidemic situation. Sometimes I feel anxious, heavy and worried, but other times I feel full of power and confidence."

All of the pieces are Chinese landscape paintings, which are drawn only in black and white, and mountains can be seen in most of the paintings, which symbolize power and faith.

Shu says the paintings show his development of understanding the epidemic situation. "Although this epidemic has had a disastrous influence, it enables us to realize the power of solidarity, courage, diligence in our country and look forward to a better future. Infinite beauty can only be seen at the perilous peak."
