Here’s something for a monday morning that, while being cute and adorable, is hard to scoff at. Wang Yue has taken to creating her art in the knots and tree holes around Shijiazhuang, capital city of Hebei Province. While art will always have a place on canvas, I think the culture as a whole gets elevated when it’s pushed forward and presented “outside of the box.” To me, technical skill has become less and less of a primary concern and creativity has really taken over. Granted you still gotta have some skills but we’ve already seen what the Masters have done and there’s plenty of people on the photorealistic tip. Wang Yue’s creativity is something I can actually feel.
It’d be really funny if she became as popular as Banksy and people started digging up the trees like they do with ripping his stencils off of walls. Then there could be a war between art thieves and the tree hugger army. I digress.
