He An
He An, born in Wuhan, Hubei in 1971, graduated from Hubei Academy of Fine Arts in 1996. In the era when neutral culture prevails in the world, He An, with his huge and solid installation works, declares the existence of such a masculine power. His practice involves multiple media such as installation, sculpture, and photography. Growing up in the era of China's economic expansion, He An's works largely reflect the emotional expression of the physical and psychological aspects of Chinese urbanization. Urban symbols such as light boxes, advertisements, and neon lights are abstracted into the ultimate artistic language; the space created by architecture or emotions becomes a place of experience for mood and imagination. In the practice of exploring urban emotional truth, He An has always projected his sincere, enthusiastic, violent and romantic emotions. But the poetic titles of his works often remind people of the delicate and gentle characteristic of this artist.
