Everyone has their own knot, Freud think that it is hidden behind a subconscious conscious. The awareness is associated with the people’s imaginal thinking, and often it is a source of creativity steady stream of artists. For the purposes of artist YuDa,his knot, is the lingering memory of the countryside, represented by the natural beauty of lakes and mountains and local customs and practices of Hu nan province. They constitute a certain nostalgia of Yu Da, but also gives his brush with passion, and trickling stream poetic.

　　There is no doubt, in Yu Da’s painting with some kind of "local painting" marks. He seemed tired of urban themes, while the country, especially the southern countryside of mountains and rivers, Village house and cottage and other soft spot. This naturally has its Concept and ingenuity from the truth. as an Hunan artist, Yu Da born in Hunan, grow up at Hunan, since his childhood hometown full of deep emotion. so-called Different water and soil raised different people. It's simple folk of ancient Chu, natural beauty of Hunan,Moisten his temperament, but also gives him the eyes to find beauty. Therefore, When Yu Da came of age,especially after engaged in artistic creation, he put these memories, inside and turned it into his own artistic language, as well as knowledge and understanding of our world.

　　In fact, the "local painting" as an artistic language and style, has experienced two different stages of development. First, it emerged at the beginning of reform and opening up, as a return to the pristine force, break the "Cultural Revolution"false embellish and hypocrisy. Because it has some kind of truth-seeking consciousness, and therefore become the Origin of Chinese new art. Obviously, Yu Da influence by the value of "local painting" . However, with China's be surging forward new art, especially the "85 New Wave" after the overall shift in Western Modern Art, the development logic of China's new art, but also by the rural narrative turned urban experience, beginning in the form of innovation and modernity obscure road. However, YuDa stubbornly believe that the form of innovation or, no matter whether the demands of modernity, not from the root of their native language and culture of life. This is why Yu Da adherence to the "local painting" creative path he is also constantly return to poetry in art, vision naturally, look back over the past in mind.

　　n Yu Da’s works,the rural society slipping away, and Heidegger "Poetic" associated joyfully lively, very poetic. Obviously, this is not a real country, or that is based on Yu Da after sketch, re-imagine and create out of a romantic countryside, in fact, some kind of reality refining, is a beauty of sublimation. Yu Da dedicated to the memory of salvage and capture of this village, the intention is actually very straightforward, that in the process of urbanization is accelerating today, in the modern jungle of reinforced concrete cast, as much as possible for us to carve out a breathing space, to keep those endless poetry and continuous nostalgia. There is a saying "longly cloud at horizon , looking back seems contains affection." (Yu Qian) Although Art can not change reality, but at least you can make up some regret of the heart, open a window to imagine the reality of hardship. Perhaps this is the artistic impulse of Yu Da, of course, but also his artistic practice.
