商亮
简介Biography
商亮（1981年生）被公认为中国艺术家中极具绘画才能的艺术家。她以能量充盈且准确的笔触描绘身体与形象，呈现交织欲望、混沌、疏离与异化的图景，视觉饱满极富张力的画面直击我们这个时代的困顿与迷失。商亮专注于将“身体”的概念反复推翻又重置，在视觉语言上创造一种“展示状态”：身体健美而又充血，始终表现出一种期待被观看被使用的状态，像古典雕塑却又是一种非常当代的情绪。她介于具象与非具象之间，游离于感性与理想，辩驳于情色与纯净，透过身体这一经典载体，在不同阶段阐释身体在当代的样态，搅拌着对于身份、身体与欲望在社会结构中的反思。商亮的作品以结实有力的绘画方式描述了一种节制的情色感和性别设定的模糊，但她对身份标签保持距离与警惕，表露多重和混沌的性特质是为了抵达一种更纯粹的去定义化的身体经验。她习惯用粉色系的颜色描绘身体，显得柔软而有温度，但在笔触叠加和合力感施压下又呈现出一种即将崩裂的紧张与膨胀感。2026年，商亮在蜂巢当代艺术中心举办个展“生体”。
Shang Liang (b. 1981) is widely recognized as a Chinese artist of exceptional painterly talent. Her energetic and precise brushstrokes depict the body and figure, presenting scenes interwoven with desire, chaos, alienation, and estrangement; her visually dense, highly tensioned compositions strike at the perplexities and disorientation of our time. Shang Liang concentrates on repeatedly overturning and resetting the concept of the “body,” creating in her visual language a state of “display”: the body is athletic and engorged, always manifesting a state of anticipation for being looked at and used, reminiscent of classical sculpture yet suffused with a very contemporary sensibility. She operates between figuration and non-figuration, oscillating between the sensuous and the ideal, debating between the erotic and the pure. Through the classical vehicle of the body, she elucidates the body’s contemporary modalities at different stages, stirring reflections on identity, the body, and desire within social structures. Shang Liang’s works employ a robust and forceful painterly manner to describe a restrained eroticism and an ambiguity of gender assignments, yet she maintains distance and vigilance toward identity labels. Revealing multiple and chaotic sexual qualities serves to arrive at a purer, de-defined bodily experience. She habitually uses pinkish tones to depict the body, lending it a softness and warmth, yet under the pressure of layered brushstrokes and a sense of compounded force, it takes on a tense, swelling quality on the verge of rupture. In 2026, Shang Liang held a solo exhibition titled “生体” (Sheng Ti) at the Hive Center for Contemporary Art.

【叙事类｜结合展览与文章资料】
- 早期“正道仔”系列（2012—2016）开始发展出对肌肉力量的崇拜与反诘，强壮身体因异常发达而显得可疑、荒诞。
- “好猎手”系列：以青少年肌肉形象出现，带有原始动物性和未被社会驯化的外露暴力，姿态借鉴古埃及、古希腊立像。
- “拳击人”系列：以拳击手套代替头部，取消面目和器官，形成抽离时空的新物种，隐喻英雄主义、权力、孤独与矛盾。
- “沙发人”系列：肌肉肿胀的身体与沙发相互包裹、困住，探讨身体与物、主体与客体之间的边界。
- “分裂的我”系列（2022—2026）：把电话、沙发等日常物作为身体的延伸或对照组，进一步将主客体、拜物/拟人之间的张力推向更普世化的层面。
Shang Liang (b. 1981) is recognized for her figurative, expressively rendered paintings and sculptures, often focused on the body, power, violence, and identity.
**Representative works**
In the platform archive, her recent representative works are the **“Split Self / 分裂的我”** series — including *No.10* (2024), *Nos.12–17* (2025), and *No.21* (2026) — mostly in oil on canvas, as well as **“In the Bathroom II / 在浴室 II”** in tempera. Earlier important bodies of work include the series **“The Real Boy,” “Good Hunter,” “Sofa Man,”** and **“Boxing Man.”** Her 2026 solo exhibition **“生体”** was held at Hive Center for Contemporary Art, and she was also presented by Hive at Frieze Seoul 2026.
**Creative style**
Shang Liang’s style is characterized by energetic, precise, and texturally layered brushwork. She repeatedly renders muscular, congested, almost overfull bodies that seem aware of being watched — like classical sculpture but charged with contemporary emotion. Her work sits between figuration and non-figuration, between sensuality and ideal, and between the erotic and the pure. She often uses pinkish, warm tones, giving the flesh a soft, tactile temperature while the pressure of accumulated brushstrokes creates a sense of impending rupture and tension. Her figures embody desire, chaos, alienation, and ambiguity, and she deliberately blurs gender and resists fixed identity labels, aiming for a more de-categorized bodily experience. Themes of masculinity, heroism, power, strength, and conquest have also been central to her evolving visual vocabulary.
