ALIKA
Born in Xinjiang, China in 1965, Alika graduated from Changji Normal College and Xinjiang Normal University’s Department of Fine Arts. He has been creating through mediums including painting, photography, and multimedia since 2002 while also being a bass guitarist who has engaged in musical events and formed a band. Alika is an influential artist in Xinjiang despite not actively pursuing contemporary art. His works mostly reflect his observation and reflection on his surroundings, focusing on contemplating issues related to the ecological environment, which is especially enlightening at this moment in time.
