Seven Battles is a collection of oil paintings that explores the coexistence and struggle between men and women. Through male figures placed in mysterious, atmospheric settings, the series reveals the delicacy and fragility of women in contrast to the gladiator-like, defeated limbs of men.

This collection is a fragment of my life — and perhaps of many men who bear the痕迹 of emotional storms on their souls. Distorted, pained, annoyed, stunned faces. Faces full of suffocation. Bulging veins. Bodies that are powerful yet helpless against the delicate, seductive, and deadly hands of women.

These are paintings of paradoxes and inner battles: pain and pleasure, agony and joy, love and betrayal — intertwined, inseparable. Each of us has been the subject, the object, or the silent observer of such events.

Collection Exhibition:
