Xinxin (b.Chongqing, China) is a multi-disciplinary artist based in Sydney. She was trained in Chongqing University in China and UNSW Art & Design in Australia. With a belief in the charm of the unknown, xinxin’s practice aims to explore the sub-consciousness and tell stories from inside each lonesome soul. She has developed a symbolic surreal artistic language in her oil painting, inspired by the oriental Wabi-Sabi and Scandinavia aesthetics and the Northern Renaissance painter Hieronymus Bosch.
Xinxin has exhibited and been collected internationally and has collaborated with a broad range of brands across Australia and Asia.
