Ying Xiao
Chen Xiao-Ying is a Chinese artist born in 1968 who lives and works in Yongzhou, Hunan Province, China. Throughout his more than thirty-year artistic career, Xiao-Ying has developed his own unique and distinctive pictorial language.
His new series, Love Cures, inspired by a difficult period in 2021, invites us to witness the artist's creativity and mindset. Hidden figures within the rich texture of the paintings emerge from his imagination.
Artist Statement
The large brushstrokes and vivid colors give us a strong visual impact, allowing us to feel his emotions and his introspective awareness.
My work is an ongoing investigation of presence, silence, and the slow architecture of material.
