Embracing the disorderly balance of the forest, the artist attempts to convey the complexities of the natural world by rendering the bough of an evergreen tree within a network of mark, points, and dots. Strikingly high-contrast, Ren Hui's modern pointillism nonetheless feels effortlessly delicate.
