Wei Pingxin

About

The artist completed both their undergraduate and graduate studies at the Fourth Studio of the Oil Painting Department of the China Academy of Art (CAA) and currently lives and works in Hangzhou. Her “My Cactus Is Sleeping on the Surface of the Sea” series presents cactus in a weightless state of floating
after losing their roots. Amidst the boundless sea, facing an alien environment, they adopt a “sleeping" posture to silently resist passive displacement.
