Peng Zhang a dark look of innocence


Zhang Peng is a Chinese maker born in 1981, currently lives and works in Beijing. His work is very personal and it shows that it is the beginning was inspired to paint more for other forms of expression. Later he began to develop his photographic work. Heir to the Japanese animation cut more than Chinese, their images do not leave any viewer indifferent.

It's that mix between innocence and melancholy drama that attracts attention is the images that we proposed. As girls and models commonly used by digital retouching makes it resemble characters more worthy of a comic manga a real person, it is this disparity, the subject that we can use their models to see more like fragile dolls as human beings makes this author has gained some notoriety, especially in the East and America.
Another of the highlights of the images of Zhang Peng, the color at a time like the present where the image tends to become less devices and for cold tones, in a way away from the viewer and thus give an external perspective, this author is supported by great contrasts, both in form and color, being very important in his works the red and white. These colors are often stained the spaces where they develop scenes, scenes that print compositionally relaxed but stress through the action.

Another form of fear, perhaps arguably more heirs of certain cinematic clichés, such as corn Boys, Damian and The Village of the Damned. Yet it seems to me interesting to transfer these lines of argument to the world of photography, we can consider half brother of the film, this seems another example of feedback between the different forms of creative expression.
