Qinghua Xiang - Qing Hua Xiang

Chinese 1976

Born in Yunyang Congqing in 1976, entered the Department of Oil Painting in Sichuan Fine Arts Institute in 1997, and has been teaching at the Chuanyin Chengdu Academy of Arts since 2001. Xiang Qinghua's pictures have a strong sense of composition, but the language of form is simple. The colors are basically flat colors, using the difference between warm and cold colors to create space and distance in the pictures. No extra illustration or strong spiritual pursuits. The characters are childish, the facial expression somewhat sluggish with a deformed intentional image, but the whole picture is mild among the low-key grey tones, as if covered by age. The simple and ordinary life covers up the world the artist personally desires – meditative nostalgia for childhood and quiet review of reality.
