Catalogue published on the occasion of Chang Yahon's solo exhibition held at the Museum of Contemporary Art at the CAA in Hangzhou, China in April 2012. It showcases the artist's works of human faces in ink paintings, acrylic paintings, sketches and iron sculptures.

'Owing to the deep understanding of human beings, I sense it better to describe from the "head" of the body to grasp feelings. That is to say, I start my pen to the "head expression" of a man to embody different expressions. In "human expression," facts of the gallant, the strong and the weak, the winner and the loser are embodied. And the most expressive part is the "eyes," because eyes cannot hide away various kinds of inner feelings, nor inner world unknown to others. "Head expression" and "eyes" have become the theme of my painting for a long period. And this seemingly simple but actually difficult theme must be embodied best in a realm of forgetting oneself.' - excerpted from artist's statement
