Rao Fu (China / Germany) was born in 1978 in Beijing, P.R. China, and lives and works in Dresden and Leipzig, Germany. His works explore the differences and similarities between Western and Eastern cultures. The relationship and status among the figures in Rao Fu’s paintings reflect his personal interaction with them. Each frame comes from a memory fragment or the experience for a certain period of time, his feelings upon it, and his thoughts on the present and social phenomena. All drive him to create, to visualize the emotions on this certain canvas. As the artist says: ” I am honest and always want to infuse souls into each character or object while painting, so they would be alive in my story. That’s my never-ending journey.”
