Statement
My work examines how images shape our experience of memory, perception, and belief. Guided by an interest in reality as something continually unfolding, I gather and rework personal archives, historical photographs, film stills, found imagery, and everyday visual fragments into unstable compositions where memory, fantasy, and obsession are shaped by the flow of contemporary image culture. Rather than reconstructing memory, the work considers how images accumulate, linger, and transform through repetition, revealing the fragile ways identity, meaning, and hope are negotiated within lived experience. Painting becomes a form of prayer through sustained attention and repetition, a way of resisting the endless circulation of images and remaining present to what persists.
Bio
Liang Lansi (b. Guayaquil, Ecuador) studied Visual Arts at Universidad de Las Artes, Guayaquil. His work develops mainly through painting and mixed media, guided by an interest in the instability of images and the subtle fractures between perception, memory, and the imagined. He explores how images resurface, distort, or overlap, creating small narrative tensions that echo cinematic pauses, half-formed memories, and the shifting logic of contemporary visual life.
He currently lives and works in Miami, Fl.
