Peng Jian's artworks unveil a graceful state of the objective reality by concealing certain aspects of objective reality in the sensory form of the artist's main intention, and inject new spiritual meaning into the new objective reality. The artist’s metaphorical approach projects his own subjective will into the objective reality, which becomes a new time and space constructed by the artist. Cubes, blocks, and spheres of different colours as we commonly see in the real world are all placed carefully together here, transcending their original physicality and symbolizing the meaning of humanity.

Peng’s new works are about relationship of dimensions and surfaces, relationship of visual art, balance of human relations, and balance in life. The pursuit of equilibrium needs proportions and symmetry. Plane, shape, colour and weight are equally important. As Peng Jian once said: "I define different objects within a limited space. I am not only trying to portray a specific image, but I want to express the deep hidden meaning in a symbolic manner. The colours here look real and pure, but not in the object. They seem to float above the object, like an amorphous subjective gesture."
Born in 1982 in Yueyang, Hunan, China, Peng Jian graduated from the Chinese Painting Department of the China Academy of Art with a master's degree in 2013 . Currently Peng works and lives in Hangzhou, China.

彭劍,1982年生於中國湖南嶽陽。 2013年畢業於中國美術學院國畫系,獲碩士學位。現工作、生活於杭州。
彭劍的創作,將原本存在於客觀現實中的某些美好的面貌,隱藏在藝術形式裡面,給客觀現實注入了新的精神意蘊,醞釀出一種美好的氛圍或狀態。對此,彭劍曾經說過:“在有限的空間內定義不同的對象,我不僅是為了描繪一個特定的形象,更重要的是希望以像徵手法來表達隱藏而有深度的意義。”他通過隱喻的方式將自身的主觀意願投射到了客觀現實中去,而這種客觀現實又是作者主觀構建的一個新時空——我們現實世界裡熟知的魔方、積木、不同顏色的球體——在這裡所有的事物都超越了本來的物性,呈現出人性的意義。
如此這般,經由創作而出色彩看起來真實而又純粹。但又不拘於對象之中,似乎懸浮在對象之上,讓色彩看起來有了無定形的主觀姿態。
