Exposition：

The main character in《A Girl of Tibetan》wears a bandana and thick clothing. With the differences in color and exquisite composition, the viewers stop their gaze on the dark and determined eyes looking far into the distance in this silent and lonesome silver world. The containing brushstrokes are influential, and Yuan Zheng Yang said “in those eyes of the Tibetan girls, you can’t feel any emotions or meaning. As though they don’t belong to our time; however, they can see through us, our thoughts and emotions.” Ai Xuan found substance in the gaze of 《A Girl of Tibetan》, he skillfully blended the loneliness and mysterious characteristics together to create a tranquil and beautiful atmosphere. Not feeling the harsh Mother Nature, Ai Xuan slowly brought the viewers into a far away and mystical art world.
