Abstract
Farmer paintings, as an important component of Chinese folk art, vividly exhibit the authentic features of rural life through their unique artistic techniques and spatial narrative methods, encapsulating profound historical memories and the veins of social change. This article will analyze the spatial composition characteristics of farmer paintings to explore how farmer painters embody the multidimensionality of rural life from a multi-integrated perspective, the reasons behind this perspective, and its underlying social functions and cultural significance. The aim is to provide a new perspective for the sustained development and preservation of folk art.
