Artista: Hong Hao

Beijing (China), 1965. A large pary of his work is based on the idea of the map (Scriptures), which he redirects into his more personal surroundings, making use of plays on words and overstepping many of the meanings now considered conventional. His most novel series My Things (2004) is centred on the scanning of personal objects that he gathered afterwards into a single picture through digital imaging, giving rise to photographs where belongings accumulated over his lifetime are grouped according to characteristics they have in common, always according to his own criterion, such as the books or the objects that have to do with the revolution in his country. He participated in the 1st Guangzhou Biennial (2001) and his most recent solo shows are: the Chinese Contemporary Gallery in London in 2004 and Suspended Disbelief at Art Beatus Gallery of Vancouver in 2000.
