Hand made Yixing pot

Zisha teapot is a traditional tea vessel originated from Song Dynasty. It is also called Yixing teapot because it was produced in Yixing, Jiangsu Province. Since ancient times, many people have injected literati atmosphere into the daily tea set and signed down, making Yixing teapot famous all over the world. Yu Peng used the teapot making skills inherited by Yixing for hundreds of years, and added his own ideas of ink painting, so that Yixing teapot skillfully exuded the artistic flavor of literati. Each pot is printed with the signature of national first-class craftsman Zhang and Yu Peng. It is a rare collection of fine arts. It is represented by Hong Kong Xinyi company.

Art evaluation

What Yu Peng's paintings show is a patchwork and splicing world. The garden world in his paintings is not only a partial representation and embodiment of his own garden and his personal gardening philosophy, but also a place for performance. Yu Peng has a serious creative motive of "making himself proud of the ancients today". Although his garden landscape has a certain degree of authenticity, its narrative characteristics are integrated with a high degree of fiction and surreal or anti realistic techniques. What he really "reproduces" is his own or some of the tastes and hobbies of the middle class in the contemporary urban culture of Taiwan. Although Yu Peng has a teacher, he has never formed any family school, nor has he entered any Academy of fine arts for further study. Therefore, he does not have the limitation of traditional adherence to the family law format, and can go in and out of China and the West in his creation.
