Artists in Residence 2024

JIA XINYU / BEIJING
JIA XINYU is a Chinese visual artist who graduated in 2006 from the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute (Oil Painting).

“There are a few words that roughly summarize my art works : "hidden", "entangled","method" and "misunderstanding" but all of them are only my own interpretations. Maybe my artworks have nothing to do with these words at all. Intangible doesn’t mean non-existent … A poem, a sentence, an ordered image or a hidden nook … entangled past experiences and memories to continue the creation of new scenarios. Every object in my works are an observation of this world from my life, but by presenting them they may truly have become non-original (different from the original object). This “misreading” of the ultimate essence causes thus the viewer to continue “misreading” the work. This relationship is what I call our “secret passage” to the unknown that happens between us.”

She incorporates multiple perspectives and time frames into a single work, depicting subjective landscapes through the relationships between ambiguously painted figures and their surrounding objects.

Project:
ISLAND
The material present and the simple act
A marine student¹ stares at the sea, sitting on a bench by the shore. In his hand a paper boat. I live on Walcheren (Zeeland, NL), an island in a delta whose fertile land is protected by dikes. Far from life in the big city, where art events take place daily, as a child I encountered art in public spaces.
During a festival, a fighter jet demonstration ended in a crash on the island of Långholmen. There was one injured person. A paper airplane², its nose drilled into the ground, commemorates the event.
The discovery that there is another island that has a connection to the fragility of man and island, to being on the road, symbolized with a paper fold, is the visual starting point for this working period.
On Långholmen, a bare rock on which people have manually applied mud and sewage sediment to make it fertile, I will be present for two weeks with attention, absorbing the impressions as folds in my paper.
What does it mean to be part of an archipelago, as a place and as a human being, within current climate developments? What materials and processes are specific to this place? What intrinsic and visual qualities do they offer? What is discarded here, what washes up here? This work period takes place as part of the research within my work process that starts in the spring and continues through fall 2024.
The central question herein is "to what extent does man coincide with her environment?"
