About
My name is Xi Luo (Rose)
A Chinese artist currently based in Shanghai. As a multidisciplinary artist, She primarily explores new forms of visual art through mediums such as textile art, photography, and painting, normally inspired by plants, western philosophical novel and ancient Chinese poetry. She considers art as a path to explore the timeless paradoxes of life — death and rebirth, togetherness and loss, hope and fear, aims to explore the expression of humans’ most vital and most common emotions. Her practice is about self-identity, existentialism, emotions, dreams, feminism and psychological states.
Through painting, embroidery, and photography, she weaved these tensions in poetic forms, allowing them to speak of both fragility and strength. She hopes both the audience and herself can find the truest selves through her works. If these emotions resonate, then art becomes not only a form of self-healing, but also a way to heal others.
