Ants Moving Home

Fend Zikai's paintings are full of childishness and compassion. This painting, ANTS MOVING HOME, aims to teach children to cherish and protect the lives of small animals.

The ants in the corner are moving home in a long line, and a child moves a lot of small stools together to set up the "corridor" to prevent the ants from being trampled to death.

By children’s protection to the weak life, the painter expresses his expectation to people that to be compassionate.
