Yu Youhan’searly paintings were influenced by the French impressionists. In the 1980s he began experimenting with abstract painting, and at the end of 1984 he began to seek a more pure form, using dots, lines and circles in his compositions in order to achieve the state Laozisuggests with his “shapeless elephant” metaphor. This evolved into his “circle” series, in which the artist attempts to “take naiveté and knowledge, tranquility and vividness, equilibrium and variation, possession and lacking, and unify such diametrically opposed things.”
