[Exhibition] Demos Chiang solo exhibition "CHERISH BLOSSOM"

Demos Chiang

Demos Chiang's family background and western education at a young age allowed him to express a modern new literati art style that integrates Eastern and Western cultures in design and artistic creation. At the age of 30, he achieved outstanding achievements in commercial design and won multiple international awards. In recent years, his artistic talent and education have allowed him to express his creativity in various aspects, including graphic painting, installation sculpture, and multimedia art. His works use anthropomorphized animals to express his observations and interest in the world, while also expressing the author's inner feelings, allowing the viewer to read his keen and sentimental nature and his equal treatment of all things. And his sincerity, tenacity, and especially the English poems written in each work inherit the tradition of Chinese literati calligraphy and painting, and are full of true emotions and philosophical reflections. The painting techniques used are Western techniques such as oil-water separation, paint splashes, and coloring. The texture created by carving and layering the work with a knife creates a rich depth of field, bringing out the sense of speed of the brush strokes and the smoothness of the painting.
When it comes to creating sculptures, he uses the concept of vacuum to explore times and moments of transformation in life. The concept of "removing the most basic and leaving the most core" is a constant throughout his sculptural thinking.
In 2021, he was invited to Chengdu Biennale Super Integration, where he was the main artist and his installation work was highly praised. Starting in Tokyo in 2023, a series of eye-catching international exhibitions will travel around the world, including Shanghai, with each city showcasing unique artworks. In 2024, Demos will return to Tokyo with more creative energy and a new artistic vocabulary, showcasing his new way of thinking and perspective on art.
