His depiction of mountains reflects this dynamic shift, with a subtle haziness that emerges as light reflects off the rocks. This painting suggests a sunset moment, emphasizing the way the fading light alters the mountain’s appearance and infuses the scene with a profound sense of stillness and silence.
For Wang, the compatibility with nature determines the Qiyun of the painting - a concept considered essential in Chinese art, representing the vital spirit and essence that is infused into the work.
王满晟从他过往在山间的体验中汲取灵感,捕捉日光的变化如何对山水间的景观产生作用。他笔下的山脉反映了这种动态变化,当日光照在岩石上时反射出的微妙的朦胧感。这幅画表现了深秋的傍晚时分,当鸟雀归巢,万籁俱寂之下偶尔有清风传来虫吟。在艺术家的笔下,日暮时分逐渐消逝的光线是如何改变山体的外观,以及如何在画面中注入深邃的静谧感得以展现。对王满晟而言,与自然的兼容性决定了绘画的“气韵”——在中国艺术中被认为是至关重要的概念,代表了灌注到作品中的情绪和本质。
