Sleep
Oil on canvas, 32" x 36"

According to Yan Sun, “SPACE is my dream. Space is not only real space; it is psychic, illusionary, and unlimited space.” In his painting “Sleep,” viewers see Yan Sun and his family are in the same space of some historic figures, especially the Greek epic poet Homer who authored the Iliad and the Odyssey. The color palette symbolizes the creative life of an artist.
