Yuan Yuan 苑瑗
Details
Description
This abstract painting showcases a dreamlike, ethereal composition dominated by soft purple and blue hues. At the center, a ghostly, indistinct figure emerges from the mist, its hands raised in a gesture of supplication or contemplation. Surrounding the figure are amorphous shapes and forms, suggesting a sense of otherworldly, spiritual elements. The overall impression is one of introspection, emotional resonance, and a blending of the physical and the metaphysical. The artist's distinctive style and use of atmospheric, almost impressionistic techniques create a profound sense of mystery and contemplation, inviting the viewer to ponder the deeper, symbolic meaning behind this striking work. ...

Yuan Yuan 苑瑗
B.1984, ChineseYuan Yuan (b.1984) currently lives and works in Beijing, China. She is best recognised for her large scale paintings of flowers. Via Yuan Yuan’s large scale paintings, the flower appear to be a non-subjective object. The blossom on the still-standing branches is held by feather-like green leaves, occupying the frame freely and at the same time extending outside the picture, as if the flower itself is already in self-actualisation at a majestic posture before the depiction. Her recent exhibitions include: Contemporary Myths and Artifacts (Stockholm, 2023); Tabula Rasa: Unveiled, No.9 Cork Street (London, 2023); ART SG, Tabula Rasa Gallery (dual solo, Singapore, 2023); The Possibility of a Flower, Tabula Rasa Gallery (Beijing, 2022); The Logic of Painting, Xinjiang Art Museum (Urumqi, 2021); Animamix Biennial, 70 Years of Snoopy, Museum of Contemporary Art (Shanghai, 2020); Utopia / Dystopia, Dietz (Cologne, 2019); Shan Shui Within, Museum of Contemporary Art (Shanghai, 2016); China 8 Contemporary Art From China at Rhine & Ruhr, Osthaus (Hagen, 2015); and Curated by Yu Hong Pan Lin & Yuan Yuan: True False Objects, Ullens Center for Contemporary Art (Beijing, 2010).
