Xiong Lijun

Art Brokerage: Xiong Lijun Chinese Artist: b. 1975. Artist Xiong Lijun's early works focused on youth subculture, with a strong sense of the times, and are the epitome of China's popular culture since the reform and opening up. The younger generation is maverick and carefree; Their delicate and glamorous shapes, their strong desire for expression and absolute identification with themselves are not only the liberation of individual awakening human nature, but also the mirror image of the times reflecting the social trend, reflecting the dissolution of the sublime culture of today's society and the loss of the spiritual home of young people, like a visual feast of indulgence and self-paralysis. Xiong Lijun's recent work has shifted more to the individual and the world in which she lives, with a clear pictorial narrative concept of "floating city" in her works. Most of the scenes in the works are various existences in real life, which occur and disappear at any time, and the complexity and delicacy of the human world are superimposed on each other like a montage, and the people in them are constantly switching between the fragments of the environment, as if wandering in the huge distance and contradiction between the ideal and the reality, the city gives human beings excess opportunities, and at the same time breeds endless troubles. Anxiety or calmness, depression or joy are all temporary choices in the moment, and the spirit of self-fulfillment is trudging. Listings wanted.
