About the Artist

Born in Jilin, China in 1981, Jiang Miao graduated from China Central Academy of Fine Arts (Printmaking Department), acquiring a BFA in 2005, and an MFA in 2009. From her early childhood, she has been strongly intrigued by an ancient civilisation and high wisdom. Since 2003, she has committed to the idea of yin/yang, point/line, and energy/life interpretation, thus forming an eastern worldview of ‘Nature and Man as one’. In recent years, Jiang has been working on themes concerning life. By applying ‘trigram’, ‘spiral’ as a symbol of soul, and energy-releasing colours as major visuals, her works suggest living truth of spirit, the soul, and body; they absorb energy from the invisible, then, release spiritual energy and magnetic field into the physical world, casting continuous thoughts for the future civilisation on the excessive materialised current world. Her works have been broadly exhibited at galleries and museums in Chinese speaking countries. In 2020, her first solo exhibition in Japan was held in Whitestone Ginza New Gallery and got favourable reviews.

About West Bund Art & Design 2024

Since its inception in 2014, West Bund Art & Design has established itself as one of Asia’s preeminent art fairs, anchoring Shanghai’s cultural landscape along the government-backed ‘West Bund Cultural Corridor.’ This dynamic platform unites international and local galleries in presenting exceptional modern and contemporary artworks to the region. A highlight of the fair is xiàn chăng, an ambitious program showcasing monumental, site-specific installations by international artists both within and beyond the fair venues.

Despite the urban redevelopment changes affecting gallery spaces in the West Bund area in 2024, the fair continues to transform the district into a compelling destination each November, solidifying Shanghai’s position as an essential stop on the global art calendar.
