“Autumn in a Leaf”,  is the new artwork is filled with magnificent, spectacular and designed modern buildings. The cold lines, minimalist tones and airtight layout produce a constrained impression to the audience. The whole structures are placed on pierced leaves; the withered leaves without flesh and blood add a trace of sorrow to the picture. The industrialization and urbanization are global themes that every country should face, sooner or later. However, they have brought about the ecosystem irreversible big wounds. The construction of a building needs to damage a number of natural lives. If the world continues to develop in such an immoderate way, the destruction of the ecosystem and the extinction of the species will be the inevitable outcome.
