About The Artwork

Year: 2019 Style: illustration Description: Inspired by a deeply rooted Chinese mythology, this piece interpreted two main characters from the folk tale into a modern setting. With the raised hand of the “Buddha”, the image tried to capture the moment when the invincible “Monkey King” was about to be sealed under the Five Finger Mountain. This moment is also a metaphor of the ongoing battle between women and men when they approach love. The unframed size of the print is 11.75'' x 17.675'' The artwork is on exhibition at Guild Gallery during the fall, 2022. Need Help? Contact sales@revart.co

Sha Li

Sha Li is an award-winning illustrator, artist and architect working and living in NYC. She has a strong interest in narratives, which is where she started her own exploration of visual arts. A lot of her works celebrate femininity and womanhood. Her works capture sections of life and unfold hidden stories that are yet to begin.

Coming from an architecture background, Sha is trained to work with completion and certainty. But she always find beauty in half-told stories, unfinished lyrics, unspoken words, etc. She understands that no single straight line can depict her emotions, convey her feelings on the blueprint. Then she start to draw her own narratives.

Sha Li is obsessed with the ambiguity of visual narratives that raise questions to the audience without leading them to a definite answer. Instead of finding answers, she is more interested in the process of unfolding the questions. Through her work, she sees her hidden self, makes peace with her struggles, and knows who she is.
