1975, born in Sichuan, now living and working in Beijing as a professional artist. Yang Liming is undoubtedly a leading figure in Chinese monochromatic painting, having worked quietly and independently in this field for over two decades. He has created the legend of using a Chinese brush to paint oil paintings, making his artistic style truly unique! He has distilled the DNA of traditional Chinese painting—“calligraphic curves”—as his artistic language, integrating Western abstraction with Eastern imagery and emptiness. The personalized brushstrokes derived from calligraphy, along with the curves corresponding to spiritual resonance, consistently carry a musical rhythm and vitality. This poetic form of abstract expression not only imbues his works with classical elements but also highlights the contemporary connotations within his pieces. Through his paintings, Yang Liming deconstructs the phenomenal world of the present while reconstructing an exploratory representation of “spiritual existence.”
