Sun Liang took pantheism as the theoretical cornerstone, and with the help of such as Jingwei in Chinese mythology, Icarus in Greek mythology, Ophelia and other archetypes in multicultural backgrounds, interweaving self-experience and imagination to create dream-like characters, death marriage, seductive chess games, blood-devouring terror, and grim laughter will all be the themes he depicts. Regarding the choice of colour, Sun Liang does not rely on natural giving, but freely imagines, creating a calm and profound exotic time-space. His unique painting language breeds a series of changes, forming a creative system that can grow indefinitely.
Sun Liang was one of the first leading figures to enter Chinese contemporary art. In the long-term exploration, the artist focuses on a unique painting language, attracting galleries and museums around the world to hold exhibitions for him. Since 2006, Sun Liang’s works have been active in the auction market, and the auction at Hosane has the best performance. Sun Liang’s works are collected by Guangdong Art Museum,Today Art Museum, Shanghai Art Museum, Taipei Fine Arts Museum, Hong Kong University Art Museum, Shanghai Zhangjiang Museum of Contemporary Art,Shanghai Long Museum, etc.
