Lin Jingjing
Lin Jingjing (b. Shanghai, China) graduated from Fujian University with a B.F.A. in 1992 before completing her advanced studies at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing in 1994. In 2020, she received an M.F.A. from School of Visual Arts in New York.
Lin Jingjing explores the depths of social and personal identity in the context of modern society, often examining themes such as confusion and quest, existence and absence, constraint and resistance through a lens of paradox. Her artwork spans performances, installation, painting, mixed media and video. She is also well known for layering thread over paintings, installations, and other mixed media to create dazzling worlds. The surreal effect created via this method immerses the viewers into another consciousness.
