Zhenlei Jiang

Zhenlei Jiang is a Chinese-born artist living and working in Chicago. Having two advanced degrees in social science, and coming from a traditional Asian artistic background, Zhenlei likes to set up patterns, rhythms and concepts to present cohesive narratives or arguments, usually on topics such as ethics, gender and modern life. “My style is bold and experimental, albeit in a framework of composure and harmony drawing from oriental schemas and aesthetic heritages.” Zhenlei Jiang has held a number of group exhibitions and solo exhibitions in China and U.S. The purposely announced identity of the artist herself as an Asian female both highlights the diversity of a global community and brings the touch of feminine philosophy onto the canvas.
