This painting is from the series Groundless, 2011―2012, in which buoys, ears and shoes float above a dark mauve or black background. In these works, Zhang Hui continues his performative exploration of time and space, moving from banal objects to the stuff of dreams.

Zhang Hui desires to make work that questions reality.
This catalogue accompanied Sharjah Biennial 11.
As part of Zhang’s considerations on paint, the colour black has become an important presence in his work.
