When we paint the moon, we always depict it as soft yellow, but in fact the moon is gray and pitted on the surface, so I use the moon as a metaphor to reflect the relationship between reality and fantasy in the matter of art and literature.
The painting is aiming to represent that how the reality and imagination have been conflicted together. Although the gentle yellowish moon that people generally love is not the face of the real moon, the fantasy is fluid. This kind of infinite imagination creates beauty and makes the moon the subject of many artists’ depictions.
