This painting features a huge banyan tree on an island in Xinhui County, Guangdong province, providing a paradise-like environment for colorful birds. Although Bird Paradise with its interweaving lines and flying dots may be reminiscent of drip paintings by Jackson Pollock (1912-1956), Wu Guanzhong never turned to pure abstract expressionism or lost the ultimate source of his inspiration, which was nature and his native country.
