Zhang Huan — Shun No. 15
Zhang Huan

Shun No. 15

Zhang Huan's *Shun No. 15* is a unique woodcut printed on handmade paper, reflecting the artist's deep engagement with ritual, memory, and the human body. Known for his physically intense performances and large-scale works, Zhang Huan here channels raw, elemental energy through the ancient medium of woodcut, allowing the grain and texture of the wood to become an expressive force in itself. The handmade paper lends the work an organic, tactile quality that reinforces the artist's ongoing exploration of Eastern spiritual traditions and the fragility of human existence.
