By using controversial art mediums, Huang is challenging the limits of Chinese traditional landscape paintings. His wife Zhang Tiemei is an artist who has been trained classically and often will execute the painting as they work together. If the face, leg, or arm moves then the meaning of the landscape can have a new twist to it. Art is part of the Chinese culture, and by painting traditional art Huang is reminding society to never forget what Chinese art means to them as a part of their heritage. It is where Huang enjoys expressing both his Zen and his Buddhist ideas.
