Yang Qianʼs works are a mélange of photography and painting as the artist seeks to
create a contradiction between both mediums to reflect on the tensions of contemporary
life.
These first three editions of Yangʼs works, executed in mixed media using archival inkjet
print with additional silkscreen overlay to capture some of his best imagery from his
Bathroom series. Here, images overlap between reality and illusion as we view the
subject through the film of a mirror, a sheen of water-droplets, and mist.
His takes on feminine beauty are timeless and inviting.
Born in Chengdu, China, Yang Qian received his undergraduate education at Sichuan Fine Arts Institute, Chongqing, China and followed with his MFA at the University of Florida.
His work has been exhibited widely throughout the United States. Group exhibitions include Prague Biennale 2, Prague, Czech Republic 2005, Chengdu Biennale, Chengdu Museum of Modern Art, Chengdu, China, 2005; FIAC International Art Exposition, Paris, France, 2004.
