2003年杜崇剛移居澳大利亞。2009年，杜在莫納什大學完成了美術碩士學位。 作為一名學術藝術家，杜通過他的作品表達了理論和藝術上對文化、權力和政治問題的關注。

 

 有人說筆杆子比槍杆子更具殺傷力， 因此，輿論文字管控可以堪比軍管重要。但是，如果不將這些知識用於善，那麽結果可能是毀滅性的。 洗腦是各種形式的媒體每天對普通民眾進行的軟性侵犯。 我們無時無刻不在被媒體衝擊：印刷品、網絡、廣告、雜誌、書籍與智能手機。 這些話題可能並不總是關於政治，但它們總是關於金錢，以及利益集團如何通過操縱我們的衣食住行的潮流來獲得更多的錢。 我們的文化多樣性甚至我們的個性都被剝奪了，因為我們被鼓勵遵守媒體的正常觀念。 在此過程中，人類正在與自然世界脫節，掠奪資源而不是與自然合作保護環境。 無論如何，這個非常重要的信號必須在為時已晚之前傳達出去。

 In 2009, Du completed a Master of Fine Art at Monash University. As an academic artist, Du expresses both theoretical and artistic concerns through his work, actively engaging with issues of culture, power and politics.

They say that the pen is mightier than the sword, and so the printed word can be more powerful than an army, however, if this knowledge is not used for good, then the result can be devastating. Brainwashing is an assault made upon the general population on a daily basis by media in all forms. We are bombarded by advertising at every turn: print, online, advertising, magazines, books and smart phones. The topics may not always be about politics, but they are invariably about money, and about how those in power can get more of it by manipulating us to buy this, wear that, eat this, not look like that. Our cultural diversity and even our individuality are being stripped from us, as we are encouraged to conform to the media’s idea of normal. And in the process, mankind is losing touch with the natural world, plundering resources rather than working with nature to protect the environment. Somehow, this very important message must get through before it is too late.

所以說言論自由很重要，媒體不能姓黨。
