They are the works on memories, and also a part of the undone project titled "Memory, reality and wishes". Huang Kui collected a lot of old things for now they’ve been a part of his memory, meanwhile he picked some of them out to paint as still lives. All gone memory, but they looked so beautiful as well.
Creative stamina as the artist Huang Kui showed in his works throughout the years, his ideas are always leaping and changing with no hurry of formation of them. Huang Kui put his own experience and sentiment which drew from social life into his works, and finally to display them with a humorous but critical way.
