Songling Lu is a typical nondescript but broad road leading through the outskirts of Qingdao, China. Beside it randomly grouped young trees are trying their luck. The areas behind them seem as nondescript as the road itself. 

But this is car driver's story, a unobservant pedestrian led astray by red ribbons interwoven with leafs and pine needles might cross the verge of the road and find herself in a magic world of abeyance and unlimited opportunities.

The work is done on what was available at the very moment—a sheet of thick structured gray paper one would use for the back side of a ring binding undergoing an artistic transformation to almost perfect.

It is carried out in situ in China and suitcased home, by this you may find a well integrated kink here and there adding to the artworks charm.

There is another drawing uploaded here at Saatchi's showing what could be found by getting through to the other side, see https://www.saatchiart.com/art/Drawing-On-the-Verge-of-Songling-Lu/777303/6237325/view .

"On the Verge of Songling Lu" comes with a passe-partout imperfectly cut by the author himself, ready for framing.

Christian Kabuß is an internationally established German artist and musician. He studied Medicine at the University of Rostock, then went on to Kunsthochschule Berlin-Weißensee, Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia and Moholy-Nagy University of Arts and Design Budapest to practice Fine Art. The artistic language within his paintings is deeply linked to a phenomenological approach to bodiliness, the freedom of subconscious artistic creation, and the theoretical and practical considerations of Design. Kabuß has exhibited in Germany and abroad. His works are present in regional, national and international collections. It is his aim to work as honest as possible, and he tends towards imagery, which is embedded in Lebenswelt, and sound. As a pianist, he performs small intimate concerts. His music is soft, sometimes freely improvised and portrays a sense of a parallel-world. Exhibitions in Italy, Sweden, Germany, China, and Japan.
