In the spiritual world of the artist CJ Zhang, he no longer abstracts the concrete things, but visualizes the abstract virtual existence, giving tangible media to the invisible information world. In the spiritual realm where he is connected to the world, the flow of information from different dimensions is constructed in the form of objects and images. When all hidden spiritual fragments are displayed online, information for us is not just data. The connection between the material and spiritual worlds has the most intuitive evidence, personality and preferences can be analyzed, choices and desires can be predicted, and the connection between the contacts is not unidirectional but bidirectional or even multiple. Not only are we dissecting the world, but we are also being deeply dissected by the world.
As an integrated product of the information age, artists possess a high degree of subjective consciousness and are also influenced by various chaotic ideological trends. This is an era before "Folding Beijing", where tall buildings are piled up and busy crowds rush around. People living in big cities have two worlds, and this semi free and semi unified ideology is an inevitable result of the globalization era of trendy art. In a huge tidal force, countless solitary waves are rolling, connected, supported, and climbed by force; After being stirred, blossomed, and shattered, it was engulfed and annihilated by the huge sea, reuniting into new strength, inspiring the people under the Tidal City to have the ability to freely build their own spiritual world.
Although CJ Zhang graduated from the Printmaking Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, for the past 10 years, he has freely switched between the commercialization of art and independent artists, using an extraordinary sensitivity to graphics and images, as well as a touch network thinking of emotional childlike innocence as a connection in his dual identity. Regardless of his living environment, he can transcend reality and freely transform into his spiritual world, establishing an independent CJ kingdom, It will connect Chaozhou culture, Youth culture and Urban culture, transcend and reconstruct, subvert and interweave. Using networked artistic techniques, I have shaped my unique artistic style.
