The Midnight Drinker (2023) Photograph by YIBO WANG

A surreal and evocative night study set against the iconic karst silhouettes of southern China. Under a deep indigo sky punctuated by ethereal orbs of light, a solitary white horse bows its head to drink from a dark, reflective stream. The composition juxtaposes the monumental, jagged peaks of the horizon with the quiet, intimate moment of the creature at the water's edge.

The soft, warm glow on the horse’s coat contrasts beautifully with the cooling tones of the twilight, creating a cinematic atmosphere that feels both timeless and otherworldly. This work explores the intersection of myth and reality, inviting the viewer into a contemplative space where nature’s silent strength meets a transient, dreamlike peace. It is an exploration of the quietude that settles over the earth
