Liang Chin-Chia

Born in Wanhua, Taipei in 1964, Liang Chin-Chia graduated from the National Institute of Arts (now Taipei National University of the Arts) in 1988 and earned a Master of Fine Arts degree from Universidad de Salamanca in Spain in 1994. His works are widely collected by art museums and collectors, such asCHIMEI Museum.

Being skilled in drawing true-to-life artworks, Liang is known for his excellent realistic painting skills. He uses classical painting techniques and draws inspiration from daily life and memories which reflect simplicity and authenticity. Liang learned painting from Huang Ming-Chang and began to paint Taiwanese children’s toys of the 60s, including wooden cases, plates, and boxes. He never attempts to change nature, but observes his surroundings attentively, trying to uncover the most stunning side of nature. Between void and solid, light and shadow, his perception of life is expressed through the texture and structure of his artworks.
