Chinese Fairytale - Ceremony 3

Yin Kun's Chinese Fairytales - Walk, oil painting, depicts stylized Chinese children with pink faces and exaggerated expressions in uniform.

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 Comic Strip Art?

Comic strip art refers to artwork that utilizes the subject matter and commercial printing techniques found in comic strips. In the 1960s, a group of artists began creating paintings that incorporated Ben-Day dots—commonly used in comics and advertising—to produce highly graphic designs in bright colors, using traditional art media.
