Huang Zhiyang believes in the perpetual motion of a fundamental life force within all matter, whether animal, vegetable or mineral, which he tries to render in his 3-dimensional forms and environments. As a painter, he integrates traditional Chinese ink-and-wash painting and the action painting of Western expressionism. His works have been displayed at a number of international exhibitions including the 46th Venice Biennial in 1995.
