JIANG MIAO

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.
