Most of the works contained in the series ‘Qilian Range’ resulted from his trips to the Qilian Mountains and were made between 2014 and 2016. ‘Qilian Range - 11’ can be understood as a microcosm of Zhuang’s experiences in the mountains. A group of 30 photographs of mountain peaks silhouetted against vivid monochrome skies make up Qilian Range – 11. For each of the 30 images, the unnatural color of the sky has been selected to bring out the particular texture and color of the landscape photographed, creating a complementary clash between artist and nature.
