The oil paintings by Yang Peng portray anonymous female figures in photorealism. There is a consistent disconnect between the figures and the audience: their eyes are closed, covered, or their bodies are completely turned away. The painted figures’ active avoidance of public communication conveys a self-reflective and transcendental state of inner mind.
