About

"To me, every color is the same, but beneath each lies an infinity of hues, containing the depths of all my thoughts." — Chun Wu Liang

The solo exhibition “Visualizing the Metaphors” by artist Chun Wu Liang will be showcased in late September at Ting Ting Art Space. Chun Wu Liang’s paintings are uniquely refined, characterized by a mysterious and profound beauty. His work has been highly praised by Camilo José Cela, the Spanish Nobel Prize-winning author, who once described Liang’s style as “feathers stained by light and shadow,” noting that his art soars across the canvas with lines of peace—delicate and mysterious, yet immediately understood by the viewer. This delicate balance forms the core of Chun Wu Liang’s artistic vision, where he skillfully creates tension between the real and the abstract, between the tangible and the intangible.

\The “Visualizing the Metaphors” exhibition focuses on female portraits, portraying them with unique narratives. The women in his paintings are not the objects of observation ; rather, they are active storytellers of their own narratives. Liang does not use professional models in his work, preserving a spirit of innocence and authenticity—an artistic goal he has pursued throughout his life. In his paintings, women are not just figures but symbols of emotion and thought, reflecting purity, nobility, and romance.

Liang often employs deep color tones in the backgrounds of his paintings, creating a visual space that also serves as an abstract void. The contrast between the abstract backdrop and the delicate, resilient female forms creates a powerful sense of tension, showcasing an intricate balance between fragility and strength. The women in his paintings, skin was as soft and luminous as fine porcelain, exude both resilience and gentle power, standing out vividly against the deep, abstract backgrounds, appearing more alive.

Chun Wu Liang’s artistic philosophy emphasizes the balance between appearance and abstraction, using subtle metaphors to interpret the external and internal meanings of his subjects. His pursuit of art lies not only in aesthetic form but in the exploration of the extension and resonance between seeing and perceiving. Each painting contains delicate emotions and deep thoughts, embodying the pure essence and complex nature of femininity. His works offer viewers a sublime, romantic, and thought-provoking artistic experience.
