I pay more attention to the realization of the inner existence of the things to choose, so as to effectively enter the state of an excellent artist, similar to children, innocent and natural, sharp and round, and then in life naturally to observe and capture the existence and meaning of the nothing, consciously or unconsciously to depict, each work for me has a strong uncertainty, that is, I do not have to paint anything, what to paint to those beautiful fate in life.

Work appreciation
Huang Zexin's works are not divided into series, they are a joint image, and each work is a temporary name. Because for him, intentional works lack vitality, so he decided to establish an unchanging core, and then base all artistic expressions on randomness.

Huang Zexin has always felt that these works do not have a strict logic and framework, although they are only shot in boring and ordinary moments and facets of life, but they can give people a greater imagination and empathy experience.
Interview with Millions of Bangs
Tens of thousands of state culture"In the introduction of the work, you mentioned that each work is taken in an ordinary moment in life, so do you have any unique perception of the phrase "art is higher than life"? ”
Huang Zexin. "Art is ** in life, but not higher than life, a good artist can always accept life everywhere, bit by bit of beauty and crisis. ”
Tens of thousands of state culture"I think it's a good idea to say that "intentional works lack vitality", but can you share with me how you build a constant core and let the audience really feel what you're expressing? ”
Huang Zexin. "When you subtract yourself, you leave more room for others and the world, and the less expectations and hesitations you have in your heart, the more you can feel others." The work is also, the focus is poor, less is more, you almost have no purpose and no reason, but you paint a picture with your heart and mind, everyone can have their own feelings and understanding, each is different, the reason is that you leave space for others. As for the unchanged kernel, I'm working on strengthening it, and there are still changes at the moment, hahaha, it's hard, but it's worth it. To be precise, it is a state, not consciousness, not knowledge, not experience, not wisdom. ”
Tens of thousands of state culture"I very much agree with the phrase "pay attention to inner feelings", you said that you have a strong uncertainty about the work, what are the specifics, is it because the content of the expression is very pure? ”
Huang Zexin. "The main uncertainty is that I don't presuppose what I have to paint, I don't define myself as an artist or a painter, I don't think of myself as anything, I walk, I look at it, I flip it, I have a certain sense of the picture, and then I paint it aimlessly but very happily and seriously, it's as simple as that." ”
