Photoetching and aquatint // Big Inkstone 2 by Su Xiaobai, created in 2016, is a limited edition photoetching and aquatint that showcases the artist's focus on texture, depth, and minimalism. This print, part of an edition of 40, features a square composition with a dark, almost weathered surface, bordered by subtle shades of earthy tones. The central form appears nearly indistinct, with faint circular lines and distressed textures that evoke the surface of a well-used inkstone, a traditional tool in Chinese calligraphy. Xiaobai’s work often reflects a meditative quality, merging Eastern aesthetics with abstract minimalism. Measuring 76 cm by 77 cm, Big Inkstone 2 invites viewers to engage with its tactile quality and contemplate the interplay of light, shadow, and surface, capturing a sense of quiet contemplation and timelessness.

What is Chinese contemporary art?
Chinese Contemporary Art is marked by a wide range of styles and experimental approaches. In the 1980s, avant-garde exhibitions were often shut down by government officials. The 1990s saw the rise of political pop and cynical realism, while China's One-Child Policy influenced artists to explore the individual as a subject matter.
