Tang Wei Hsu's creative process contains the elements of ecology, astronomy, animation and architecture. At the same time, he merges the architectural vocabulary of space and materials into his creation. His works are often describing unknown spaces, which expressed at both macro and micro levels, and he tries to blend reality and fantasy worlds. Tang Wei Hsu is good at drawing smooth lines of organic creatures composed in black and white patterns, which is regarded as his personal trait and artistic style. He extends from flat paintings to sculptures and spatial installations, constructing a unique fantasy space.
