Huang Chih-Cheng (1988-)

 

Born in Miaoli and grew up in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, Huang Chih-Cheng received his M.F.A. from Tunghai University. His outstanding performance has made him the winner of the 2015 Next Art Tainan, the recipient of the Selected Prize in Kaohsiung Awards 2014, The 10th Taoyuan Contemporary Art Award, and The Arising Artist Award of New Taipei City in 2011 and 2012. His artworks are collected by Tainan Museum of Fine Arts and National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts. In 2015, Chih-Cheng was invited to numerous exhibitions, including joint exhibition ‘Forest Banquet’ at Regent Galleria and his solo exhibitions 'Roaming the Shores' and ‘Air Amusement’. In the same year, Chic-Cheng also participated in a joint exhibition ‘FINE ART / UNIVERSITY SELECTION’ in Tsukuba Museum of Art in Tsukuba, Japan.

 

Shimmering with an irresistible luster of gold, Chih-Cheng’s art centers upon issues of life and death. As he collages the dissected organs with floral images, the artist speaks of the different emotions experienced in life and the ultimate search between morality and eternity. In 2015 Chih-Cheng created a new series of installations using materials gathered from nature, experimenting a new expression for life and death within a larger context regarding the earth. By fixing the gold on one side of the withered leaves collected to present the sacredness of the spirit, the artist exemplifies the double reality of the unique experience of an individual and its ultimate return to Mother Earth.
