Pernand-Vergelesses Premier Cru - Les Vergelesses, Cuvée Rameau-Lamarosse

Clear River was painted in London in 2013 when Tian Liming was a guest lecturer and artist in residence at the Slade School of Art, University College London. Employing his characteristic ink visual language, it depicts urban life and figures with a modern freshness. Full of pastel colours and light, scenes of everyday life such as this are instilled with optimism and brightness. Tian once mentioned how by accidentally dripping water onto a paper with a brush he created an effect of light and translucency. This special technique blends the colours together to form perfectly harmonious compositions. It is through such harmony that Tian expresses his attitude toward man's relationship with nature and a tranquil spiritual experience.
