+ OVERVIEW

In 1996, he went to France to study, and Chang Ling developed a high interest in politics, economy, culture and other social phenomena. After returning to Taiwan in 2005, the artist focused on the subjectivity
and discourse power of contemporary Eastern culture. The artist used his own basic structure to see through the unique creative style of this memory that belongs to his motherland, and returned his creation to the “physical body” as the starting point.

After 2010, Chang Ling used the new title of“Illusional Society” to sneak into the “Flesh city”, as if the civilized life and social observation under microscope observation, based on the unique style of
“Just Spirit”, bold use of color and free and liberate brushwork, composing the “Illusional Society” series.

Chang Ling’s “Night Mountain Residence” was created in 2016. Instead of the bright red color and dark black tones that were commonly used in “Pork Belly Series” in the past, the three colors of blue,
white and black depict the tranquility of night and the scent of snow. There is a higher spiritual artistic conception, which makes the viewer feel the baptism of the clear soul. The white tones of the paintings are
endlessly varied, and the delicate and subtle parts of one thousand percent are carved out. The snowcovered peaks and the ups and downs of the upright mountains fully express the elegance and cold beauty that the painter wants to express.
