Discuss the following statement in groups of four.
“The landscape is an inner one, a spiritual and conceptual space.”
उत्तर
This phrase explains Chinese art from where a Chinese painter wants you to enter his mind rather than borrow his eyes. This is a physical as well as mental participation. It is a landscape created by the artist to travel up and down, and back again, through the viewer’s eyes. The landscape is not `real’ and can be reached from any point.
