For Yang Chihung, painting is mysterious and profoundly rich. The creation process is an unknown journey embedded with unlimited surprises and changes. Given the geographical advantage of New York, the origin of modern abstractionism, in the last ten years, Yang Chihung has expanded his esthetic scope from concrete image into abstract one, retaining his central theme. Yang continues to venture into the grand focus of nature in an attempt to use metaphor and exclamation to represent life perspectives. Yang also engages various kinds of nature and regulation to discuss the purest discipline of life to reach the balance between paintings and painter in his art.

Another strong advantage of Yang's art is the strength in expression and versatility. Yang is equipped with the ability to embrace indigenous power and poetic visual creation. Some part of his power derives from the pouring emotion, expressed through abstractionism. Yet Yang's art has never been shown solely in the abstract form. Indeed nature and concrete object serve as his outlets to balance, indicating that artist is not satisied with one single mode of representation, but in the continuous search of a successful fusion of two kinds of painting realms.

The predicament and color within "Looking for the Light" underscores the mysticism but spiritual beauty, with its own unique fantasy and purity. Within the meditative painting realm, the track of light slowly extends from unlimited gentleness to dark covering to explore serenity and silence. The solid shadowing, delicate coloring variation, and the low of multi-layer strokes traveling from green to blue to red all reveal the painting at ease in a great joy. Whether the canvas congregates the deep power of universe, or embedded with the oriental beautiful lair of poetic estheticism, or rich in the overwhelming power is endowed with the synergy of rebirth in the search of light and shadow.
