Jiaxin Tang
b. 1995, China
Bay Tang Jiaxin (China, b. 1995) holds a Master of Arts degree from the Royal College of Art in the UK and currently lives and works in Changsha. Influenced by her background in printmaking, the qualities of paper have become central to her artistic language, allowing the material to convey her exploration of the blurred existence between space and time. In her Pierced Paper series, Tang uses a needle to lift the fibers of paper, creating an undulating surface through repetitive actions. These acts embody the passage of time, with the resulting texture and visual-tactile resonance reflecting her state of mind during the creative process and her inquiry into subspaces. Her work The Stone of Another Mountain has been collected by the Jiangxi Art Museum.
