Penghang Liu’s practice examines the missing and lost parts of our life, which have left traces in our memory and drive us to return to them repeatedly, consciously or unconsciously. By introducing the concept of light, he focuses on the visible but immaterial attributes of light, which make it equivalent to the nature of the things lingering in our memories: we can feel their presence in the depths of our minds, but they can never be touched. 

His research also includes Jacques Lacan’s psychoanalysis. His work has been exhibited internationally in many art institutes such as Hua International in Beijing, D Contemporary in London and the Arsenale Nord in Venice.
