SAISEN ART is pleased to announce the opening of artist Yang Song's solo exhibition "Light", on November 2nd.
Yang Song is an artist in constant movement, one of a few who explores speed as a formal visual element, evolving, experimenting, incessantly researching new artistic territories to construct new visual worlds. His vision is clear and not tied to a specific formal language or aesthetic doctrine but explores the powerful potential of his own imagination. Yang Song combines forms and materials in conceptual and visual compositions, rejects or embraces his findings, changes his perspective and procedure following his perceptual objective and visual research result.
His flexible mind and versatile execution transcend any mainstream logic, articulating a practice based expansive and evolutionary yet conceptual body of work that constantly goes further and beyond. He reveals his forms and materials with logic and intuitive method, with a problem-solving spirit and open approach that resembles that of a visual scientist exploring the natural phenomena of speed as well as light, matter and motion, optical phenomenology and the psychology of perception.
In many of his works Yang Song articulates a conceptual, visual and material formlessness that explores, through symbol and matter, the two notions of imperceptible transformation and the deconstruction of speed.From the physical slow inactivity of water to fast industrial slathes, Yang Song articulates also a deconstruction of speed, that is immaterial and subjective, articulated not by matter or machines, but by light, or more precisely by our optical experience of magnetic radiation.
