Hangyu says that art is supposed to reflect life and society. It should also be thought-provoking. His choice of theme and application of surrealism in the animated work, makes for the contextualization of the work in relation to contemporary fine art practice.
Also, the application of 3-D technology makes works more visually exciting. His intent is to explore surrealism in digital art. The outcome is to get viewers involved; to provoke questions and invite their own conclusions. The landscape works have been achieved through a combination of 3D and 2D formats. Landscape paintings date back thousands of years in China, and Chinese people feel a great attachment to them, culturally and artistically. His intention is to redefine Chinese landscape painting, with contemporary computer technique, yet traditional essence. Through this collection, his dream to combine art and computer technology has begun to come true. My interest in the mix between computer language and the arts, dates back to the days when I was a graduate student at Luxun Academy of Fine Arts. At first, I used the computer only to make concept pictures for my sculptural works. But then I saw the great potential of the computer in the field of the arts. After my graduation, I worked with several brilliant digital technology teachers at the China Media University. They helped me overcome a lot of difficulties with computer technology. After 10 years experimentation and perseverance, my dream to combine art and computer began to come true. |
