Taiwanese artist Yu Chuan Chang draws inspiration from garlands, which are part of Bangkok’s daily life, to create contemporary paintings that bridge Eastern and Western art. His floral creations convey the concept of impermanence by capturing the beautiful moment of bloom, rendering it timeless on canvas in the "Stillness in Bloom" exhibition at Maison JE Bangkok.
Yu Chuan’s creative approach stands out for its blend of traditional Chinese brush techniques and oil paint, allowing the rhythm of each stroke, the flow of color, and emotional expression to significantly shape the composition.
His brushstrokes are raw, bold, and powerful, reflecting the balance of distinctiveness and indistinctiveness in human life. The colors in his works – distinctively earth tones – communicate about vitality as well as emotion.
Influenced by Chinese myths and philosophies, his paintings open the door to inner worlds and metaphysics as they explore the relationships between humans, nature, and invisible forces.
This series of artworks is not merely a presentation of visual beauty; it invites viewers to contemplate impermanence and observe familiar everyday things through a fresh perspective by capturing the moment of bloom on canvas.
