26 Vogue Editors-In-Chief On The Images That Bring Them Hope In 2020

“Artist Wang Yong looked to ancient Chinese history for his hope inspiration, with a work entitled. In particular, Wang sought inspiration from the Han dynasty, known as an era when art and architecture flourished some 2,000 years ago. It was the tradition to have round eaves on buildings, with engraved drawings and texts to send out good wishes and hope for the future.

“Wang referenced a tile from that period engraved with 12 characters that collectively spell out a message of peace and wellbeing for people all over the world. The circle represents the number zero, reflecting the artist’s wishes that Covid-19 infection figures will reach that target in the near future. The circle also represents wholeness and perfection.

“The artist took the project very seriously and undertook deep research into Chinese history to find suitable inspiration. Anyone reading the characters in Chinese would grasp that the artist is addressing a sombre topic, while ultimately conveying a message that people should be positive and look forwards with hope.

“We can all relate to that message during these troubled times. Wang works across many mediums, but for this one he stuck to the basics, using ink on paper with just a touch of red — a colour that, in itself, symbolises happiness in Chinese culture.”
