This work represents the existence of cycles in life, cycles formed by the interplay of complementary opposites, mutually constituted and moving spirally. “El Sol“, denoted as masculine in the Spanish language and “La Luna“, denoted as feminine, also imply other interdependent opposites in life flowing harmoniously such as day and night, North and South, Summer and Winter.

Sol y Luna

How to make digital art without a computer? How to take a “real“ photograph that doesn’t look like a photograph? This is what I’m trying to do. I’m trying to imitate computer made images without using any computer. To do this, I build installations with wood in polygonal shapes on which I paste printed photographs. I then do a photo shoot of these installations with strobe lights. The result gives the impression of digitally manufactured images. But in fact, those photographs constitute pure photography, without any recourse to alteration or computer tampering. In my work, I explore the relationship between man and the machine and the reception / perception of images in the context of digitization and artificial intelligence. 

Visions of the Digital World

I constantly hear his voice inside my head,
judging right from wrong.
The Oppressor,
Demanding his family
to represent love and freedom.
However on the inside,
it was cramped
and fearsome.

In this group of work, Liyu explores the alternative ways of image-making: By reconstructing the scenes from the film "The Living End" with abstract and shadeless painted shapes, he reveals the restless emotions embodied within the original composition and offers a radical and somewhat surreal storytelling. His work creates new space for speculation and then becomes a semiautonomous aspect of lived experience for the artist himself as much as the viewer.

What is a photograph? For me, a fragment of quick-silver, a lucid dream, a scribbled note from the subconscious to be deciphered, perhaps, over years. It is a monologue trying to become a conversation, an offering, an alibi, a salute.

On The Border

The Citara or Zither tables are allegorical music design furnitures of an irregular rationality that is enormously inspiring and elegant. A design that resembles spaceships or boats and that results in attractive angles, full of magic and spatial adaptability. The combination of square and triangular shapes, without any vertex, make these tables stable and highly stylized structures, the five legs make the structure look even slimmer than it already is. The Zither Tables are objects with which to play in infinite positions, a metaphysical sculpture full of lightness, color, musical and traveling spatial references.
