+ OVERVIEW

Born in 1982, Huang Jen-Chieh grew up immersed in artistry as his father was a skilled metalworker. Inspired by his love for nature, Huang seamlessly integrates life and art. In his works, we often find metallic and found objects, which he discovers in flea markets and antique shops that resonate with him. Additionally, his pieces incorporate raw minerals. Huang believes that inherent beauty of raw minerals, akin to that of polished diamonds, as their primitive simplicity reveals the unique beauty of nature. Huang's works have been exhibited in Taichung, Taipei, Kaohsiung, Edinburgh in the UK, Tokyo in Japan, and the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts. In 2018, he established the ‘Danzhou Jewelry’. Huang's "Mine" and "Pit" series, where intricate metalwork and crystals intertwine, creating spaces that seem to extend infinitely. Pearl ants diligently labor, dotting the corners of the artwork, traversing through the deep and intricate mines. The profound depths of the quarry reflect a subtle, twinkling light reminiscent of stardust, exuding a restrained brilliance.
