Shi Hui, artist, professor at the China Academy of Art, doctoral tutor. Director of the Wanman Wall Mount Institute. Shi Hui graduated from the Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts (now China Academy of Art) in 1982 with a bachelor's degree in dyeing and weaving. From 1986 to 1989, he studied contemporary fiber art creation at the Wan Man Wall Institute. In 1987, the work "Shou" (cooperation) participated in the "13th International Wall Biennale" in Lausanne, Switzerland, and achieved zero breakthrough in the contemporary Chinese wall hanging art. Shi Hui was the first Chinese artist to engage in contemporary fiber art in the 1980s. She insisted on the creative direction of fiber art in contemporary art. The work is characterized by cotton, hemp, rice paper, pulp and other fiber materials, at the level of contemporary art. It reflects the essence of the oriental spirit. His works have participated in many important exhibitions at home and abroad, as well as nomination exhibitions and biennials, which have attracted wide attention. Shi Hui continued to use Chinese rice paper and pulp as the main medium. Behind this kind of love, it is obviously the recognition of the special attributes of the media and its own soul, as well as the belief in the value conversion of Chinese traditional media in the contemporary. Shi Hui's works show unique visual characteristics in the pattern of Chinese contemporary art. She expands the traditional weaving into a visual space. The weaving process is used as a process of experience and becomes a kind of The image interpretation of postmodern animism. |
