One of LU Song's creative focuses is painting technique research and experimentation. We are made aware of his paintings' conceptual quality by the Theater series. LU Song recruited filmmakers, actors, models, choreographers, dancers, musicians, and other creatives to collaborate on the series, which began as a cross-border project in 2021. His initial goal was to use group production and improvisation to foster connections between individuals in various fields. LU Song retains the right to decide which portions of the image to remain, even if he does not use paints or take part in the actual painting process. He modifies the contributors' styles by manipulating the image's composition and utilising collage to combine the graffiti of two or three people to create a single, cohesive image. Since then, LU Song has also started to employ this method of image association in his studio works; the only difference is that he produces a new "theater" by fusing images that he generates at various points in time to create a single image.
There is a fractured visual language in this series. This disarray is evident in both the way the text is presented and how the photos are organised. Together, the fragments create a rich and varied visual tale, with each fragment having its own distinct style and significance. His recognition of difference is reflected in the first method to cross-border cooperation, where each participant's distinct perspective and area of interest are made clear, and the result is a picture with layers and rich expressiveness. The disjointed visual language represents the multiplicity and intricacy of postmodern civilization, where many viewpoints, cultures, and values are continuously blending and clashing. The lack of a distinct main subject or sequential storyline in the photos allows for a multitude of interpretations and inspires viewers to use their imagination and own interpretation to explore the rich visual experience.
