目前《夏－委婉》黄晓亮个展正在上海M97 Gallery展出，2013年10月20日结束。

在多层次的户外炎热狂欢照片里，黄晓亮的最新力作在探索作者对夏日精髓的解读。 通用的主题如水和萋萋、极富生命的大自然充斥于这些景色中，还有处于对大自然母亲所赐予的小小惊奇的奇妙思索中的孩童 。黄晓亮独特的摄影技术创造了一种影画似的，如梦如幻的潜意识或魔幻现实主义的性质。 天真烂漫的孩童面前满载着跳跃鱼儿的货车，观察蜻蜓飞行的惊奇，即将跳入水中的泳者的满腔期待，爱侣于荷花池内的激情热吻，无一不在提醒我们年轻的美妙和无忧无虑的日子。黄晓亮的最新照片是节日庆典的一首颂歌及刚刚结束的休闲季节里生活的简单乐趣；是呼吁珍惜各种赋予生命意义的小事物的一声呼声。

Multi-layered photographs of outdoor, warm weather revelry, Huang’s latest body of work explores the artist’s interpretation of the essence of summer. Universal themes like water and lush, life-filled nature abound in these scenes, as well as children in wondrous contemplation of nature.

Huang Xiaoliang’s unique photographic technique creates a cinematic, dream-like quality of the subconscious, or magical realism. A truck brimming with fish jumping before a wide-eyed child, the wonder of observing the flight of a dragonfly, the sense of anticipation of a swimmer about to dive, a lovers’ passionate kiss among water lilies – all remind us of the beauty of youth and carefree days. Huang’s newest photographs are an ode to simple celebration and the ordinary pleasures of life during the summer season, an exhortation to appreciate the small things that give meaning to life.

黄晓亮利用投影和分层次影像，创作出神奇的黑白世界。通过研究摄影学里最基本的光和影两个元素，再加上遵循古老的中国皮影戏传统， 黄晓亮凭着前期制作技巧的高超表现，延伸了摄影代表性的界限。他的成品图象充满怀旧之情，眷恋着那失去的纯真、童年的单纯。

Huang Xiaoliang creates magical black and white worlds out of projected shadows and layered images. By studying the most fundamental elements of photography – light and shadow – and following the ancient tradition of Chinese shadow puppetry, Huang stretches the boundaries of photographic representation in a masterful display of pre-production skills. His finished scenes are full of nostalgia for the loss of innocence and the simplicity of childhood.
