Zhang Lingrui regards his work as a relic of a tug of war between order and chaos. From the perspective of details in painting, in addition to being bricks and tiles that construct images, the physical traces they leave on the canvas are also stagnant states at different time points as the main subject. As Cy Twombly said, "Every
line reflects its own history, and even without an explanation, it remains a materialistic event of its own."
