Born in Nanjing, China |
|
Born in Nanjing, Han Ya Juan graduated in 2002 with a degree from the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou. She has since completed a Masters Degree at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing. Fascinated by fashion and celebrity culture, Han Ya Juan’s paintings are characterized by pixie girls who dance, fly, and dream as they clutch their Dior Handbags and flaunt their Fendi bracelets. While many Chinese artists would use these emblems as a means of criticizing Western influence on traditional China, Han Ya Juan celebrates the exuberance and fun they bring to a young and hopeful Chinese generation. |
