These nine circular works from Jin Tang's Thunder-Struck Landscapes series have found their new homes.

Created with mixed media on circular panels, each piece explores the relationship between darkness and illumination, destruction and renewal. Gold emerges from deep layers of ink and texture, echoing the artist's ongoing fascination with the transformative power of nature. Inspired by the forests of Vancouver, these works invite viewers into quiet moments of contemplation, where moonlight, memory, and landscape merge into a single poetic vision.

Although the collection has been sold, this is your final opportunity to experience the works in person before they leave the gallery.

Don't miss the chance to see them as part of Sunken Gold · Drifting White, a duo exhibition featuring Jin Tang and Chen Li-Chung. The exhibition closes June 13, 2026.

With over four decades of artistic practice, Vancouver-based artist Jin Tang has developed a distinctive body of work that bridges Eastern landscape philosophy and contemporary abstraction. Born in Taiwan and now based in Canada, Tang's artistic journey has evolved from observational landscape painting to deeply personal explorations of nature, memory, and spiritual transformation.

His acclaimed Thunder-Struck Landscapes series draws inspiration from the lightning-scarred trees and ancient forests of Vancouver. Through layered oil paint, mixed media, and richly textured surfaces, Tang transforms the marks left by time and nature into powerful contemporary landscapes that speak of resilience, renewal, and inner reflection.

Today, Jin Tang's work continues to explore the profound relationship between destruction and renewal, transforming the textures of nature into poetic landscapes that invite contemplation and discovery.

Among the towering cedars of Vancouver's forests, Jin Tang encountered a decaying tree stump whose form seemed to contain an entire world within it.

Its weathered structure resembled an ancient ruin — fractured walls, rising spires, and a hidden interior chamber carved by decades of growth, decay, and transformation. Rather than seeing a fallen tree, the artist saw the blueprint of a landscape.

In the studio, the stump evolved into a floating mountain kingdom suspended between earth and sky. The hollow center became a radiant waterfall. The broken edges transformed into cliffs illuminated by moonlight. What was once shaped by natural erosion became a vision of permanence and transcendence.

This work reveals a central idea within Tang's Thunder-Struck Landscapes series: nature is not simply a subject to be observed, but a language to be interpreted. The forest writes its own stories through texture, form, and time. The artist's role is to uncover them.

Looking at the original stump and the finished painting side by side, one begins to see how landscapes may already exist within nature, waiting to be discovered.

Nature is not merely observed in Jin Tang’s work—it is transformed.

For the Thunder-Struck Landscapes series, Jin Tang often begins with forms discovered in Vancouver’s forests. In this case, a weathered tree stump becomes the foundation for an imagined landscape. The fractured wood, eroded surfaces, and organic textures are reinterpreted as towering cliffs, ancient mountains, and mist-covered formations suspended between reality and memory.

Rather than replicating the natural object, Tang allows its textures and rhythms to evolve into a new visual world. The stump’s weathered contours become geological structures, while the empty spaces between forms transform into waterfalls, valleys, and passages of light. Through layers of oil paint and mixed media, the artist reveals how nature’s smallest details can contain entire landscapes waiting to emerge.

This pairing offers a glimpse into Tang’s creative process—where a single remnant of a forest becomes a poetic meditation on time, transformation, and the enduring spirit of nature. The result is not a depiction of a tree, but a reimagined landscape born from its memory.

The scars left by lightning, time, and nature become the starting point of Jin Tang’s visual language.

For his acclaimed “Thunder-Struck Landscapes” series, Jin Tang drew inspiration from the lightning-struck trees found within Vancouver’s Pacific Spirit Regional Park and the forests surrounding UBC. The fractured bark, charred textures, and quiet resilience of these trees are transformed into meditative contemporary landscapes that merge Eastern philosophy with contemporary mixed-media painting.

Rather than simply documenting nature, Tang reinterprets these forms into emotional and spiritual terrains — where destruction becomes renewal, and silence becomes presence. The towering textures and fissures found in the forest evolve into mountains, rivers, and inner landscapes shaped by memory, time, and transformation.

These side-by-side images reveal the dialogue between the natural forms discovered in the forest and the finished artworks created in the studio — offering a rare glimpse into the artist’s creative process and the origins of the “Thunder-Struck Landscapes” series.

Between silence and form, landscapes slowly emerge.

In these works, trees are not simply representations of nature, but quiet traces of thought and emotion. Through layered washes of ink and white acrylic, Chen Li-Chung transforms branches, mist, and distant horizons into reflections of inner space. Forms appear, dissolve, and reappear, inviting viewers into a place where stillness carries its own movement.

The subtle lines and drifting textures suggest a landscape not of geography, but of memory — a quiet terrain shaped by contemplation and time. Rather than asking us to observe, these works ask us to pause.

White in Quiet Drift — Chen Li-Chung

Within these two works, silence becomes the subject. Through restrained layers of ink and white, Chen Li-Chung reduces landscape to its quietest essence—where mountains dissolve into breath, and lines emerge like distant memories rather than physical forms. What first appears minimal gradually unfolds into subtle movement: soft rhythms of black and white drifting across vast spaces of stillness.

Rather than depicting a place, these works invite viewers into an inner landscape. The delicate traces of line and layered washes create a contemplative space between presence and absence, movement and stillness. In that quiet balance, the works ask us to pause—to experience not what is seen, but what is felt.

Drifting between stillness and motion, Chen Li-Chung’s monochromatic works invite viewers into a contemplative inner landscape shaped through layers of ink, white acrylic, erasure, and silence.

In these atmospheric compositions, black and white become more than contrasts — they transform into a meditation on balance, emptiness, and presence. Subtle traces of branches, mountains, and shifting forms emerge softly through abstraction, creating spaces that feel both intimate and infinite.

Presented as part of Sunken Gold · Drifting White, Chen’s works explore the quiet dialogue between spiritual reflection and minimalist form, where each gesture becomes an act of introspection.

“Through black and white, I attempt to open a conversation of the spirit using a minimalist visual language.”
— Chen Li-Chung
