Yun-Fei Ji's ink-and-brush with mineral pigments on rice or mulberry
paper scenes are "part history painting, part symbolic landscape, part
documentary (and at times autobiographical) sketchbook"(Knafo).
The
artist was born in Beijing in 1963, to a People's Liberation Army
doctor and his wife, and grew up in the city of Hangzhou, on a military
base where his father ran a clinic. At the age of 10, he was sent
by his mother to study with an officer who drew illustrations for PLA (showing 500 of 3349 characters). |
