Born in 1981, Jifeng Mao developed a deep passion for art, particularly drawn to the intricate world of textural oil painting during his early years. Choosing to pursue his artistic inclinations academically, he specialised in oil painting theory, material application, and wall decoration design. Jifeng's journey led him to Germany and France, where his unique approach to modern art design garnered him a devoted European audience. Jifeng’s art pieces are inspired by personalities and characters, he often sees his art as an extension and interpretation of the natural world. Preferring solitude, he retreats to quiet spaces to visualise characters and bring them to life through his art. Utilising fabrications, textures, and a vibrant color palette, Jifeng's creations aim not just for visual impact but also a palpable emotional connection. Jifeng Mao's artistic philosophy is a fusion of technique and emotion, creating a bridge between his inspiration and the observer. His unique blend ensures that his art is not just seen but felt, promising a lasting impact on those who engage with his work.
The World Map Painting is not just a geographical representation; it's a striking piece of art that brings a global sensibility into any room. This particular painting takes the familiar form of the world's continents and infuses it with a rich, tactile quality through the use of elevations and depressions, creating a three-dimensional effect on the canvas.
The grey and white color scheme gives the piece a modern and neutral palette that can complement any decor style, while the cracked paint effect adds an element of ruggedness and antiquity, suggesting the passage of time and the enduring nature of the earth.
