Petal 22 | BIAN JING

€0.00

Petal 22 (2025) by Bian Jing presents a more restrained and atmospheric interpretation of the series.

In this acrylic on canvas, a luminous white form emerges from a dense black field. The composition feels suspended — as if the petal-like structure is dissolving into light rather than expanding into space. The black background is vertically textured, creating a subtle sense of rainfall or gravity, while the central white mass radiates softness and fragility.

Delicate gestural marks appear within the white surface, suggesting fragments, traces or internal movement. A fine linear incision subtly crosses the composition, introducing tension and dividing the pictorial space without disrupting its balance.

Unlike the red-dominant works in the series, Petal 22 is built around silence and contrast. The dialogue between black and white creates depth not through color intensity, but through tonal vibration and surface texture.

At 60 x 60 cm, the square format enhances the sense of containment and meditation. The piece carries a quiet but profound presence — ideal for interiors that value subtlety, minimalism and conceptual strength.

About the artist

BIAN JING

Bian Jing (b. Tianjin, China) is a contemporary artist whose practice is rooted in painting and extends into sculpture and spatial installation. Working primarily with oil on canvas, her work explores inner states of emotion, memory and transformation, translating personal experience into a powerful and intuitive visual language.

Through expansive gestures, layered pigments and bold chromatic contrasts, Bian Jing allows painting to become an act of release. Her compositions emerge through movement rather than premeditation, transforming color, texture and rhythm into carriers of psychological intensity. Abstraction, in her work, is not a formal choice but a necessity—an immediate response to the complexity of lived experience.

Flowers appear recurrently in her paintings as symbolic forms rather than representational motifs. Reduced to expressive signs, they embody tension, resilience and emotional awakening. Deep blacks evoke restraint and silence, while vivid reds express vitality, desire and the impulse to break through limitation, creating a charged dialogue between control and freedom.

Bridging Eastern sensibility and Western expressive traditions, Bian Jing’s work positions painting as a space of emotional clarity and inner liberation. Her practice invites viewers to encounter transformation not as a resolved state, but as an ongoing, visceral process—one that unfolds through gesture, color and instinct.
