幽默和荒诞是童坤鸟表现方式的核心概念，他用幽默和荒诞来挑战既定的社会规律和普遍的社会地位。 他的作品包括动态雕塑、绘画和混合媒体装置，以及他古怪的机械物体表演。 他的特点是使用批量生产的商品、可回收的二手材料和发现的物品作为元素来创作装置。 一方面，唐的作品是对猖獗的消费主义和工业国家生活条件的反应。 另一方面，它也是中国年轻一代通往精神世界的窗口。 他独特的风格和作品富有冲击力的视觉效果让观众沉浸在他的世界中，同时也遇到了熟悉的新奇体验。 自由、平衡和重力是艺术家独特作品的中心主题。
Born in Changsha, Hunan in 1990, he graduated from the Third Studio of the Sculpture Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 2015. He was admitted to graduate school in 2016 and dropped out in the same year. Currently working and living in Beijing.
Humor and absurdity are central concepts in Tong Kunniao's mode of presentation which he utilizes to challenge established social laws and the prevailing social status. His oeuvre consists of kinetic sculpture, painting and mixed-media installations, paired with his eccentric, mechanical object performances. He characteristically uses mass-produced goods, recyclable second-hand materials and found objects as elements to create installations. Tong’s work, on the one hand, is a reaction to rampant consumerism and the living conditions of industrial nations. On the other, it acts as a window to the spiritual world of the younger generation in China. His unique style and the impactful visual effects of his works allow the audience to become immersed in his world, whilst also encountering the novelty of familiar experiences. Freedom, balance, and gravity, are central themes in the artist’s idiosyncratic body of work.
