"I exist in the moment the artwork is completed." — Jhan Jhuang-Syuan

"I love wandering alone, letting my mind drift. I find peace in nature—mountains, seas, forests—and in the arts—films, theater, literature, music. These experiences open up my senses. I'm just an ordinary person, but I think deeply about the meaning of existence and transform my reflections into inner landscapes, which I share through my paintings.

My art captures these inner landscapes, using brushstrokes to express emotions, textures to leave traces of creation, and symbols to evoke memories. Each completed piece becomes a slice of my life. I hope viewers can step into the memories I've created, feeling the blend of memory and reality, finding resonance and interaction, and recalling their own fragments of experience through my work."

— Jhan Jhuang-Syuan, excerpt from the Ministry of Culture Art Bank official website, artist section

Jhan Jhuang-Syuan (1992-2024) was a contemporary Taiwanese artist. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in Art and Design from National Hsinchu University of Education and a Master of Arts in Fine Arts from National Changhua University of Education. His work primarily focused on painting, exploring themes of architecture, homes, and landscapes. Known for his fragmented compositions, he delved into the aesthetic experience of imperfection, seeking a sense of place in memory, and conveying personal sensitivity and life experiences through his art.

Jhan Jhuang-Syuan has held solo exhibitions at Yu Go Xing in Taichung (2024), King Car Cultural & Art Center (2021), A Gallery (2019), Kuan Art Space in Taichung (2018), and Gai Art in Taipei (2017).

His work has received several awards, including second place in the Taiwan Emerging Art Awards (2015) - Painting, selection for the Oil Painting Category at the National Art Exhibition (2015), selection for the Kaohsiung Awards (2015), the Lee Tze-Fan Art Education Award (2014), and the National Hsinchu University of Education Art Creation Award (2014).
