FU Liang was born in Sichuan, China in 1993. He received his BFA in 2019 and MFA in 2021 from the Nantes Saint-Nazaire School of Art, France. He currently lives and works in Paris. Fu’s work, with an intricate interplay of rich textures, corporeal forms, and geographical landscapes, embodies subtle access to a series of perceptions, emotions, memories, and knowledge. Rooted in a familial legacy of antique connoisseurship, Fu’s artistic vision is enriched by a deep-seeded understanding of historical aesthetics. Delving deep into different modes of material transformation, his experimental use of mineral pigments and other raw materials resonates with his philosophical contemplation on the passage of time and the gradual change of life as a part of the organic and sometimes mystical ecology. By often employing the figural as a rhetorical device with a warm, intimate, and gentle touch, Fu’s practice explores the synthetic relationship between the seen and the unseen, the presence and absence, and the being and non-being.
