Wang Xin was born in Yichang, Hubei, China in 1983. She graduated from China Academy of Art with a B.F.A. in 2007 and graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (M.F.A.) in 2011. Her body of work takes the form of installations, moving images and new media. Her signature use of pink adds to the hypnotising effect, and imbues a sense of ambiguity and fervency within her work. Unconsciousness, art world systems, and post humanism are key features in her creations. She has a penchant for challenging the archaic structure of the art world, as she often takes its institutions, systems, and dogma as her material. Her bold slogans satirize her own position and relation to the art world, while critiquing the art ecosystem at large. Wang is also a certified hypnotist, and uses her work to alter a viewer’s perception and affect their subconscious. She has has exhibited her artwork internationally including: de Sarthe Gallery, Beijing, China (2016); 8 HZ Hypnosis Lab, MoCA Pavilion Shanghai, China (2015); Now You See: New Chinese Video Art from the Collection of Dr. Michael I. Jacobs, Whitebox Art Center, New York, USA (2014). In 2007, Wang Xin is the recipient for the Pierre Huber Creation Prize Award of Excellence.
