Signed in Chinese and dated 2013 on lower right; also signed and dated on verso // Chinese Fairytales - Walk by Yin Kun is a 2013 oil painting that presents a surreal, almost unsettling portrayal of Chinese children with exaggerated facial expressions. Their pinkish faces, uniform white attire, and rigid postures create a sense of uniformity, contrasting with the softness in their expressions. A larger, partially visible figure in a green jacket looms behind them, suggesting authority or guidance, evoking themes of conformity and control within society. The stylized, almost doll-like appearance of the figures reflects Yin Kun's commentary on cultural identity, societal expectations, and innocence within a controlled environment. The exaggerated features and dreamlike palette add a touch of surrealism, making this piece both thought-provoking and visually arresting.

What is Naive Art?
Naïve art describes a style of artwork that is simple and unsophisticated, often created by artists without formal training in an academy or art school. The style is characterized by a lack of advanced techniques, giving it a childlike appearance. Naïve art often features bright colors, simple shapes, and a straightforward approach to subject matter, reflecting the artist's untrained perspective.
