"Superimposed screens behind a board game" is an avant-garde work created in ancient China. The painter referenced the space-time concept to create a three-dimensional or even four-dimensional effect when drawing on a two-dimensional medium. Is the scene in the picture reality or an illusion? Chinese artist Xu Lei shares his views.
