Asian Music-Themed and Reptile Artwork

Beijing Opera, or Peking Opera, is a kind of Chinese opera and has a 200-year-long history. In ancient times, Beijing Opera was performed mostly on stage in the open air, teahouses, or temple courtyards. The actors change masks onstage, unbeknownst to the audience. This technique is known as changing faces. This Alex Zeng creation is a homage to that time and the amazing art and variety of these masks. The eyes seem to peer into your soul as you gaze at this amazing piece of work. As always, this piece is framed in a black wood veneer and protected by a glass lens. It is also hand signed by the artist.

Imagine touring the old theaters of China. You may run into a character similar to that depicted in this Alex Zeng Beijing Opera Mask piece. The classical repertoire of the Beijing Opera features masks such as this brought to life in the art collage style. This sinister mask seems to stare right through you. Immerse yourself in classical Chinese musical theater and drama. This fascinating piece is part of Alex's Beijing Opera Mask series and belongs in the collection of any serious art aficionado.
