New
Horizon

New Horizon marks a radical and liberating geographical and philosophical transition for international artist Sun Yukun. After relocating from Beijing to Calgary, Alberta, Sun has completely dismantled the boundaries of traditional representation, arriving at a state of absolute artistic purity.

Deeply rooted in a contemporary re-exploration of Art Informel, Sun's new collection vehemently rejects geometric abstraction, rational composition, and traditional modeling rules. Instead, he surrenders to spontaneity, intuition, and the elements of chance. He fundamentally abandons narrative meaning and "additivism," championing the pure dynamics of form and space. To Sun, the artwork has no premeditated theme; rather, the process itself is the meaning, and the physical act of painting is the content.

Working with oil and acrylic on canvas, Sun asserts that "the material itself is the art." He amplifies the raw texture, the spontaneous generation of traces, and the inherent friction between color, tension, and space. He strips away any symbolic or metaphorical interpretations, insisting on the "self-evident" nature of art. By rejecting didactic textual explanations, he liberates the painting, returning it to its most honest and authentic state.

Therefore, New Horizon is not a collection to be "read" or deciphered. It is an invitation to a visceral encounter. Through these works, Sun Yukun invites viewers to bypass the rational mind and intuitively experience the pure aesthetic joy of the creative act — immersing themselves in the unpredictable collision of material, color, and raw, unapologetic power.
