Ching Ching Cheng: Love

Released Tuesday, February 21, 2012


Love, by Ching Ching Cheng.
15% of the sale of this print goes to Farm Sanctuary.

Ching Ching Cheng always immerses herself in the subject matter of her artwork, so that her work gives an intimate and personal account of her own experiences, while simultaneously encouraging the viewer to recall their own. Ching Ching’s work is symbolic and conceptual. She presents subject matter outside the self from this psychological position. This intimate gesture allows for a personal connection to be forged by the viewer with the work. Ultimately, there is no definitive subject, but only a meditation on personal experience and emotion. Ching Ching challenges herself through drawing - solving problems and difficult ideas. Most of her work is in mixed media - using ink, watercolor, gouache, and acrylic. She works digitally and traditionally, as well as three dimensionally, and likes to experiment with different techniques and mediums. The color of her work is very subtle and quiet.

About the print:
The title of this artwork is called Love. There are always many ups and downs in a relationship. We fight and argue because we love each other; we also hug and kiss because we love each other.

This is a digital print on acid free, Neenah uncoated matte 100lb cover paper that is 80% recycled. It was digitally signed by the artist and was numbered by The Working Proof.

PURCHASE $35!




What has inspired you recently?
The subject matter that influences and inspires my work the most comes from psychology and nature. The different ways that people deal with situations varies so much, and I find that very special and interesting.

Why did you choose to pair Farm Sanctuary with your print?
I chose Farm Sanctuary because I love all animals, and also think it is important to understand where our food comes from. I have two dogs, one cat, one turtle, and 40+ fishes! The zoo is still growing!

How have you seen art transform the world around you?
Yes, of course. Just like The Working Proof, with the sale of each artwork, artists and buyers can help improve the world!

If you could pick one artist to mentor you, who would it be?
Kiki Smith. I just love her work!

Who are some artists you think people should know about?
Chase Osborne (my husband), Tim HawkinsonMike Kelley, and Kiki Smith.
