Kuan-Chun HUANG holds an MFA in Sculpture from Taipei National University of the Arts and earned his PhD in Art from Kyoto University of the Arts in 2020. His multidisciplinary practice spans painting, sculpture, fiber art, and graphic design. Working primarily with acrylic paint, Huang proposes a reclassification of painting into penetration, adhesion, and painting ontology. Through this framework, he explores the potential of painting as an autonomous structure, moving beyond the traditional notion of paint confined to surfaces.
In his works, paint becomes the subject itself—no longer tied to representation, but responding to space, perspective, and perception. Through techniques such as draping, suspending, and folding, Huang constructs painterly environments that invite viewers to navigate, linger, and engage in a personal dialogue with the works. His painting is not a not merely an object to behold, but a phenomenon to dwell in.
