Light and eyes, space and perception converge here, as Ren Yichun gradually shifts her gaze from vision to the flow of sensation. The artist's perception achieves a synthesis in the work of painting, allowing the images to manifest a peculiar combination of rational design and intuitive sensibility. This still remains a form of intuition inherent to painting; however, the intuition itself has become sufficiently complex. In the words of the poet Paul Valéry, " Whatlies deepest of all in man is the skin," and the most essential lies in the fleeting glance.
