JIANG Wenbin Chinese, b. 1982

Inspired by surrealist perspectives, Chinese artist Jiang Wenbin focuses on the fusion of dreams and reality, breaking away from traditional logic to create supernatural scenes. He explores alternative universes and parallel realities, constantly questioning the concepts of reality and human existence.
 
For over 20 years, Jiang Wenbin has been working on his series of "fantastic cities." He expresses his unique vision by depicting urban scenes with altered perspectives. His technical mastery of realistic painting allows him to create unreal scenes that appear convincingly real. His ability to capture the nuances of light, the textures of surfaces, and the subtleties of shadows and reflections is particularly remarkable. By assembling fragments of images from reality, he creates a "new reality" unique to him.
 
Jiang Wenbin manipulates angles and viewpoints to craft scenes that defy conventional expectations and perceptions. This results in a surreal aspect to his works, inviting viewers to question the nature of the depicted reality. This alteration of perspectives creates a sense of strangeness and mystery, captivating the viewer's eye and imagination.
