He says “I have spent a long time researching the richly colourful cultural heritage of the Yao and Miao nationalities and the Dong minority. Over the years I have lived amongst them and become friends with these beautiful people who radiate pure goodness and a simple love of life. Cultivating their ancestor’s achievements, they turn life into immortal art.”
distilling and
representing the unique traditions, costumes and heritage of the minority tribes of Southern China, especially the Miao, the Dong, the Zhunag and the Yao. The affinity and respect that Shen Ming has for these people is clear in his work as he preserves in paint the realities of their lives. In his figurative pieces he focuses on the ornate costumes worn for religious festivals, Weddings and holiday celebrations. These stunning individual portraits contrast sharply with his large interiors, which give an intimate glimpse of the daily life of millions. He has an empathy for the way in which these tribes live, their attitudes, culture and history.
These highly sought after and collectable pieces have met with International acclaim and feature in private collections worldwide. He has exhibited in Britain, Hong Kong, China, Singapore and New Zealand and has taken part in several important national exhibitions in Beijing, winning several major awards. No Naked Walls Gallery owner Sharon Withers has a long established relationship with Shen Ming and has built a unique partnership. Sharon says "Shen Ming Cun is a delight to work alongside, his work translates the emotional and physical aspects of the authentic Chinese nationalities. His commitment to perfection is unparalleled, his passion for his subjects and their environments is prevalent in every detail.”
