Will YU is a Taiwanese contemporary artist. The creation of human nature on the subject of life philosophy is his artistic work for many years. He thinks that life is a very important matter, and art is a secondary issue.
Evolving around the recurring themes of “Research of the Masculine” and “The Paradise Underneath the Horizontal Line” his art seeks to portray the psychological state of men and women. He believes that no matter men or women, tough or tender, there is a completely different character lying in our unconscious. “When we are confronted with all kinds of limitations, pressure, and oppression in our lives, some people demonstrate an attitude of tough, resistance and never stepping back, leaving behind the fact that there are parts of ourselves featuring compromising, negotiating and consummation,” says Will YU.
He is a prominent talent who touches on the important and profound themes of the current context, wonderfully fresh but that historically we can find in the journey of each individual who heads towards the simple search for the reason that echoes in the minds, every day in the path towards the creative freedom, the fusion between the true being and our daily actions, the symbiotic reality between the passing of days and that that perception that pervades the sense of time, that intuition…that makes, in some way tangible, possible immortality.
His paintings are collected and exhibited in galleries and museums in various countries. From 2003 to 2020 he has been a part of international exhibitions in the United States, Italy, China, Japan, Korea, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, Taiwan, Russia, and France.
