Art beat...finger on the pulse

Beijing

The siren song of memories

Li Baiming's solo exhibition Hometown displays 20 of his latest ink-and-water paintings, in which he applies only black and white to recreate memories of his hometown. With a great passion for detail, he illustrates empty streets and bicycles as well as age-old houses covered by snow. He brings out viewers' nostalgia for their hometowns and a mixed feeling of loneliness, warmth and tranquility.
