WU Shang-Yung Taiwan, b. 1988

WU was born in Taipei, Taiwan in 1988. In 2015, he obtained Master of Painting and Calligraphy Arts from National Taiwan University of Arts. Wu was the chairman of the 12th Association of the Visual Arts in Taiwan and is currently based in Taipei, Taiwan. Having long been devoted to paintings, images, and installations, WU’s works feature the deconstruction of daily phenomena and the dialects of inertial logic, which explores the shift of the essence with diverse and nonlinear thinking. WU’s creative expression combines eastern philosophies of Zhuangzi and Laozi, visual psychology and sociology. He endeavors to construct tranquil and poetic surrealistic realms through the rich entwinement of spiritual insights and thoughts.
