"Tianxin's Journey Across China," by Zhang Tianxin /Provided to CGTN by artist and guardian
"Tianxin's Journey Across China," created by 7-year-old Zhang Tianxin from the United States, is the Grand Prize winner of the "China Through My Eyes" Global Children's Art Project! Congratulations, Tianxin!
In the summer of 2024, Tianxin spent four weeks creating a marker drawing that captures the essence of her first trip to China. The artwork showcases famous landmarks from cities across China, such as the Great Wall and the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, the Tianjin Eye Ferris wheel, the Chengdu 339 TV Tower, the Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai, and the Jinma Biji Square in Kunming. In the vibrant scene, Tianxin imagines exploring China with other tourists, as well as a cat driver and its companions navigating the streets.
Judges' opinions:
The composition uses a cut-out, collage-like approach that breaks spatial constraints and employs the technique of scattered perspective to unify iconic landmarks from different cities. It masterfully captures the geographical and cultural landscapes of modern China. This work not only conveys a sense of majestic grandeur, but also embodies the vibrant, innocent, and expressive nature of children's art. The young artist's control over composition, choice of subject matter and painting techniques make her work rich in content and impressive in its application of artistic methods.
