Xin Lian is a Chinese-born artist who binds the multiplicity of time through imprinting and embedding. To imprint and to embed is to leave behind traces of activities and presences that once lived. By capturing past energy through drawing, the residue of the past resides in the image of the “current”. Through the conversation of the past and the present, she attempts to reconstruct our current relationship with trauma, loss, and grief in the transient landscape of time. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Fashion Institute of Technology. Her works have exhibited at CICA Museum in Gimpo, Museum of FIT in New York, M. David & Co. Gallery in Brooklyn, and Amos Eno Gallery in Brooklyn.
