Catalogue Note:

Yang Ren-ming's "Unstable Ties" series is one of his works with perfect balance between tension and purity, and "Unstable Ties Dreamy Pills" is the representative work from that series. Yang's early "Black Water" series implies Taiwan society and the independent thinking of the new Taiwanese; the "Ring of Light" series moved from the concern for the grand environment to the discovery of human soul, the ring of light from the west and the fulfillment from the east has been his subjects during that period; on his latest, "Unstable Ties" series, he said: "The Unstable Ties is about the change of context in the whole painting process. However, alteration and modification when painting isn't going to work. I then take the process as a record of my thoughts, and what is left in the end is the state of coagulation." In this series of works, there is a light that came through multiple color blocks "from the back", like a unstoppable energy, penetrates. In the picture we find sharpness in regular and irregular edges, which adds colors of rationality in the picture. Though the picture looks complex and multiple, but the tone of color is cold. Yang utilized multiple layers of colors repeatedly, until an explosion occur in the picture, which transcends the visual experience from the past, with these elements derived from the efforts of the past, Yang's successfully creates a transformation which has never been seen before.
