Views of Water

Description

Description

Whitestone Gallery Hong Kong is pleased to announce Views of Water, by the innovative Chinese artist, Yang Yongliang. Trained in traditional Chinese ink paintings, majored in Visual Communication in China Academy of Art in Shanghai, and working as a multimedia artist, Yang Yongliang creates works that meld both traditional art forms and digital technology. Each work in Yang’s contemporary reinterpretation carefully recreates the historical aspects into moving images, transforming the static landscape into an active and energetic state. Yang’s distinct style is deeply rooted in his childhood, growing up in a village near Shanghai, where he was experiencing the changes in the Chinese culture and environment. Through his practice, Yang strives to offer an alternative reading on landscape paintings and draws attention to societal issues such as environmental pollution and rapid urbanization.
