Dicecream Magazine📷Chao-Tang Chang (born in 1943 in Taiwan).
Chang Chao-Tang is Taiwan’s most representative photographer.
Chang has been described as a master in surrealism. His body of work, a synthesis of western existentialism and Chinese ideology, is hailed as an iconic sign of the times during Taiwan’s White Terror period.
He published a series of absurd works that expressed his sense of ridiculousness and desolation.
He found the camera a direct way to relieve his oppression as well as release his rebellious energy. His unique style made a great impression on Taiwanese photography, and he not only had exhibitions at home but also received international appreciation.
