Sunset (2021) captures a sunset scene near Tan Mu's studio, based on a photograph taken by the artist overlooking the East River in downtown Manhattan. The lights on the wall echo the hues of the sunset, while the urban glow across the river enhances the composition, creating a dynamic interplay between natural and artificial light.
