Lu Pingyuan was born in 1984 in Zhejiang Province and now lives and works in Shanghai. Lu’s artwork is rooted in his interest in the intangibility of the human spirit and will.
Through his creation and use of “stories”, Lu has presented the circulation and evolution of human experiences and developed a series of works combining multiple factors such as art history, popular culture and personal experience beyond various media including text, image, painting, sculpture and installation. He combines surreal narrative and conceptual art, creating a gigantic world of fantasy homologous with reality to reveal the spiritual predicament of contemporary human beings and rediscover the potential for spiritual connection between humans and all living things.
