Han Feng
Harbin, China b.1972
Han Feng, b.1972, currently lives and works in Berlin & Shanghai. His work involves multiple mediums, such as painting, and installation. His works are often inspired by daily objects, exploring the abstract structure of the objects themselves on the canvas, or translating the understanding of the structure into the installations, to show the traditional and natural phenomena in continued evolution. His works attempt to express their daily reflective rules via the recording of the process and construct more spaces for different cognitive gatherings in the presentation of his works.
