Abstract: Shen Congwen's geo-expression includes local writing and modern urban writing.Behind his geo-expression,there are strong feelings of nation-state and human consciousness.With "human" consciousness and "human" vision,Shen Congwen has transcended the native Xiangxi consciousness and nation-state consciousness,starting to think about the whole life and survival circumstances of human beings.Shen Congwen's artistic thought of human ontology holds that aesthetics and art should take human beings as the starting point and the end point,persisting in guiding people to be good,constructing the beauty of human nature in order to achieve the ultimate goal of harmony of human beings as a whole.As the subject of artistic creation,artists should also adhere to human feelings,bearing historical responsibility and historical rationality,sticking to the concept of creating for human beings in loneliness.

Key words: Shen Congwen, human consciousness, artistic thought of human ontology
