Artist: Cao Xifeng
 
Artist's reflection: A bright blue background with the outlines of circles contrasts well with the woman in the red dress with undefined areas of blue. She's laughing, perhaps at a joke? Or something she saw that is funny. 
 
Paintings from the contemporary art series "The Show" are mainly constructed through artistic vision that manifests from the living state of people's material revelry and an absurd, illusory and alienated mental state in the context of a contemporary consumer culture.
