Yang Jiechang was born in Foshan, Guangdong, and graduated
from the Chinese Paintings Department at the Guangzhou
Academy of Fine Arts in 1982. He spent time studying Taoism
under master Huangtao, which has had a profound influence on his
work. Since the late 1980s Yang has been residing in Europe. Yang
Jiechang has gone through many distinct phases in his artworks,
from the early abstract ink works Hundred Layers of Ink where he
associated the repetitive practice of layering ink to meditation, to the
more recent series in which he merged political ideologies with his
Song style fine brushwork. Although much of Yang’s subject matter
is contemporary in nature, his technique with the Chinese brush
confirms his roots and strong foundation in classical Chinese ink
painting. Tomorrow Cloudy Sky is inspired by the discussion about
the dangers of nuclear power: the ‘clouds’ depicted in the painting
differs from the ones referred to in the calligraphy work.

楊詰蒼，生於廣東佛山，1982 年畢業於廣州美術學院國畫系。
他及後師從黃陶道長學習道教，此經驗對他的創作有著深厚的
影響。1980 年代後移居歐洲。楊氏在藝術創作生涯中經歷了多
個階段，由早年抽象的千層墨系列中將積墨和冥想聯繫起來，
到近期的作品結合政治意味的題材和宋人工筆，往往能把野蠻
和暴力的題材化成美麗和仁慈的畫面。儘管楊氏創作皆為當代
的主題，他運用毛筆的精湛技巧反映出深厚的國畫功底。《聽
日多雲》系列受核危機啟發，畫中“雲”的形態扭曲，並非書
法作品中天氣報告所指的雲，與背景的顏色形成了強烈的對比。
