Artist(s): LV Miao
Date: 6 Jun - 30 Jul 2010
1979 Born in Xi'an, Shanxi, China.Graduated from Bremen College of Arts, Germany 2008. Lv Miao's works bear a kind of mysterious power. The polished surface -thus attains the effect of mirror image- "absorbs" the surroundings and viewers into the alien space he sets and thereby deconstruct the original spatial relation and construct a new one. Lv Miao has special preference to industrial pigment. All the "Bling Bling" pieces are shining with rich colors, exciting the viewers' optic nerve and stirring their thoughts and emotions, and finally generating unexplainable pleasant sensation. The most ordinary daily-using objects, have been significantly magnified by the artist, and thus change viewers' inertial thinking of these objects. Their simple practical function is changed into fantastic or even absurd entertainment and interaction between viewers and works. The works of Lv Miao explain his philosophy of relations. All the using of color, size and material reflects the artist's exploration of "relations" - trying to find a balance point between works and human, human and space, works and space, and outer and inner spaces.
