It all begins with emotion – layers of thoughtfully examined and poignantly lived emotion that is painted onto canvas and sewn into the fabric. Emotions give meaning to life and breathe life into the art of Mingzhang Sun. Ming's work resonates with grace and power, inviting us to experience the world through the spectrum of intensely felt emotions.

 

Ming's artistic style is a fusion of figurative expressionism and neo-romanticism, infused with elements of Chinese landscape painting and the aesthetics of Chinese calligraphy. His artworks exude refined elegance and sensuality. Through the use of figural distortion and elongated forms, Ming evokes themes of sexuality and heartbreak, while also capturing the mood of palpable solitude, unwavering hope, and reverence. Symbolism plays a significant role in his artworks, often alluding to Chinese lore and mythology.

 

Ming embraces a diverse range of materials in his artistic practice, pushing the boundaries of different mediums to explore unseen connections and hidden meanings. His recurring themes revolve around the interconnectedness of humanity, the relationship between fear and perception, and the ongoing interplay between the choices we make and the choices we let slip away.
