Wang Jingyun
Young artist, born on 26 August 1996 in Neijiang, Sichuan, China.
Entered the Venice Academy of Fine Arts in 2019. In October 2021, he graduated with 110/110 in New Techniques of Art - New Media (Two-year Master Degree) from the Venice Academy of Fine Arts.
His art explores the themes of everyday life, individuals, circumstances, and time, with a focus on pessimism and introspection. He is a versatile concept artist who enjoys creating new meanings and stories through the combination of concept and content, using a variety of materials including ready-made products and natural elements found in human society. His works depict the human experience, our understanding of existence, and the passage of time.
He hopes that the public will understand in his work the poetic imprint that underlies each project, pessimistic and introspective at its core, while also implicitly embracing a subtle emotional force.
His work has been exhibited at the 59th Venice Art Biennale in 2022 at the Venice Pavilion and the 17th Venice Architecture Biennale in 2021 at the Venice Pavilion. He was also a resident artist at the Bevilacqua la masa Foundation in 2021/2022. He also served as the cover artist for the summer 2022 edition of the magazine "IMPETUOUS", and his work has been exhibited in China, France, Spain, and Italy, and has been collected by several prestigious institutions.
Currently lives and resides in Venice/Torino, Italy
