China Artist
Gao Rong

ARTIST BIO

Born in 1986 in Baotou City, Inner Mongolia, Gao Rong graduated from Beijing’s Central Academy of Fine Arts in 2010. Initially taught embroidery by her grandmother, Gao Rong now safeguards native cross- stitching folk art techniques of Shaanxi Province. Discreetly weaving her life story and subtle illusions in how reality is but an interpretation of the relationship between object and time, her art commonly appears as an obsession to a singular moment: hyper-real home décor capturing an iconic time and place, and thus embedding a narrative to that moment.  Her creations and several works were collected by the White Rabbit Gallery in Sydney, and then subject to multiple exhibitions. Her large-scale creations have participated in the 18th Biennale of Sydney and the 5th Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art, and have been exhibited in the Istanbul Modern Art Museum, the Central Academy of Fine Arts Museum, and in numerous galleries in China and New York.
