Features: The artist's home is different from ordinary homes. You ask him, "Why is your home so empty? It feels like it hasn't been decorated at all?" He replies, "I like it." You then ask, "Why is your painting like this?" He still says, "I like it." Artists don't like "glossy and splendid" or "ornate and painted beams and rafters." They will use their limited funds to expand indoor space and collect artworks. Abandoned industrial factories are their ideal locations. For space and sunlight, they will go to any lengths; for preserving the original state of the old buildings, they are not afraid of "broken eaves and crumbling walls"; for their treasured possessions, they are not afraid of any difficulties.
