Yongqi Tang’s meticulous approach begins with drawings, which serve as both a technical rehearsal and a conceptual exploration for the final paintings. These preparatory sketches are not merely preliminary, they are integral works of art that stand on their own, showcasing the raw and unfiltered vision of the artist. By presenting them, Tang invites viewers to engage more deeply with her art, providing a comprehensive understanding of her practice and the intricate journey from initial sketch to completed artwork.
