Cang Yuan: Awakening of Consciousness at Art of Nature


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

Art of Nature grandly presents Cang Yuan: Awakening of Consciousness, a solo exhibition showcasing the abstract paintings from the Conscience series created by the French-based artist, Cang Yuan, during the Covid epidemic period. The theme Awakening of Consciousness grew out of the interpretations of the artist himself about his works in letters to friends. 

"By finishing the first piece of work of this series, I slowly started to touch the essence of perception, as well as the essence of consciousness." 

The latest series of works reveals the connection between the human body, spirit, desire, space, external experience, moral sense, and worldview. As his art is further cut off from realism and nature, he transformed his aesthetic approach from scenic poetry to philosophical and spiritual poetry, rooted solely in the internal experience. Breaking through the ordinary paradigm of abstract art, Cang further amplifies his unique painting language, masters the fusion of colours, and integrates philosophical reflections. Cang's distinct personality and unparalleled painting style will make a long-lasting impression on its audiences.
