# Project Description 0/1 Series De Tang Summary Final work De Tang is a Chinese abstract painter whose practice bridges the cultural and geographical landscapes of Canada and the United Kingdom. Rooted in an engagement with philosophy and cross-disciplinary inquiry, his canvases navigate the space between sensation and reflection, translating questions of perception, language, and memory into gestural fields of colour and texture. Tang earned his BA (Hons) in Art + Design at Trinity Western University, Canada, where he presented the solo exhibition “Overwhelmed” at the SAMC Gallery. The project laid the groundwork for his ongoing investigation into how visual ambiguity can evoke embodied emotional states while prompting conceptual debate. Now based in London, Tang is completing an MA in Painting at Camberwell College of Arts, University of the Arts London. In parallel with his graduate research—where he incorporates readings in phenomenology, digital media, and East-West aesthetics—he is exhibiting in “BRIDGES,” a group show at LumiNoir Art Gallery that explores connectivity across borders and disciplines. Through an evolving vocabulary of layered marks, erasures, and chromatic shifts, De Tang challenges viewers to dwell in uncertainty and discover new modes of seeing.

College Camberwell College of Arts Course MA Fine Art: Painting Graduation year 2025 My ongoing series translates language into matter and code into gesture. The first diptych, 0/1-1 , converts the verbs “produce” and “consume” into UTF-8; wide 3-D-printed teeth stand for 1, narrow for 0. Dragging this custom tool across twin canvases, I act as a living printer, embedding data in paint; mechanical repetition slips into micro-deviations, forming a constructive glitch that echoes CRT snow. The second panel, Unverfügbarkeit , spells the German word for “unavailability,” insisting—through a blizzard of binary marks—on what resists control. The newest work, Resonanzen , adds an infrared sensor and hidden UV strips: when a viewer approaches, ultraviolet light floods the surface and a layer of clear medium fluoresces deep red, shifting the grid from clinical monochrome to something bodily and pulsing. (Unfortunately, the interactive device has moved from the show due to certain technical issues.) Across black and white (and sudden crimson), coded strokes slow digital speed into tactile duration. Each canvas exposes the gap between rational machinery and the fallible, ever-deviating body that drives it.
