Introduction
Pan Pengbin's artwork "White Horse is Not a Horse 8" explores the philosophical proposition of "white horse is not a horse" through a highly tensioned oil painting medium. Using a restrained yet profound gray and white palette, he outlines the hazy yet rich contours of horses in the composition. The clever use of an expressive technique that blurs the boundaries between the abstract and the figurative inspires viewers to reflect on the relationship between language, logic, and cognition. The force and calmness revealed in the brushstrokes, along with the purity and simplicity in the handling of forms, highlight Pan's profound understanding of Eastern philosophy, while also containing infinite poetry within the silence.
