Description
-
An abstract, stylised self-portrait reduced to quick, loose gestural strokes delineated using a medium-sized brush, depicting the artist seated in three-quarter profile, with his long hair falling over his bare torso. Quick, dry, overlapping scribbles are layered over the backdrop, while pseudo-calligraphic characters resembling the artist's Chinese name (陈壮) cover his face. Painted in dark blue.
