"The Spring of Life" is painting from the series "Well, Mountain, Farm". Although the representative component for the "Well" is absent in this work, the silver in the center of the picture is designed by the artist as the spring water in the soil emerging from the ground directly to the surface of the grassland. Here the green grass is a symbol of vitality. Well water is also spring water, so the painting is named "The Spring of Life." The structure of the picture is simple, with the ink color representing the soil layer, the silver representing the well water and the light green representing the green grass on the ground. The style is similar to the minimalism prevailing in the United States in the 1960s. From this painting, we can also glimpse the style of Li Dezhuang's paintings in the second decade of this century, which has shifted from abstract expressionism to concept creation and a style similar to minimalism. Li Dezhuang, born in Singapore, Wenchang Guangdong native, graduated from the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts. This special location where eastern and western cultures clashing together gave him a broader vision and a sense of collaboration within artistic creation. He's spent an almost 20-year time in the international environment to create, experiment, explore and transfer, his expression skills sharpened, and his aesthetics sophisticated. He combined the languages of the west and the east and came out with his own unique idiom of abstract art.
