Demos Chiang: Season Changes
Whitestone Gallery Singapore is honoured to present 鈥淪eason Changes鈥�, a solo exhibition by Taiwanese artist Demos Chiang. The relationship between Whitestone Gallery and Demos Chiang that began in Taipei, has expanded to Tokyo and Seoul, and now here in Singapore. Demos Chiang鈥檚 scholarly family background and the Western education he received during his youth have led him to develop a contemporary literati art style that blends Eastern and Western cultures in his design and artistic creations. Early in his career, he founded a commercial design company, achieving notable success and receiving multiple international awards in the design field. In recent years, he has channelled his artistic talents and cultivation into various art forms, which include graphic painting, installation sculpture, multimedia and street art. His large-scale installation at the Chengdu Biennale in 2021 received widespread acclaim.
The exhibition invites established Taiwanese curator Wang Yu-Ling as guest curator to showcase the changing seasons within the gallery space. Chiang's intricate and unique painting techniques create multi-layered colour textures that reflect the rich and diverse changes of the seasons, guiding viewers through the cycle of a year and inviting them to reconnect with their memories of nature's cycles through the animal imagery depicted by the artist. The work also often includes poetic English phrases filled with raw emotions and philosophical thinking, adding a striking visual effect.
