Lu Zhengyuan's collection of works entitled 'half-truth' uses different media to explore the deceptive nature of viewer perception. Working in sculpture, painting, photography, and installation, the artist analyzes the dichotomy of "real" and "fake," and the manner in which such an assessment shapes the viewer's appreciation of an object. With pieces such as the light installation 'Red Green,' where the words conflict with the colors in which they appear, Lu Zhengyuan also examines the relationship between sensory perception of an object and cognitive understanding of its meaning.
