About the artwork
The solitary figure, riding across a landscape of clouds, evokes a sense of journey and exploration. The long spear and quiver of arrows suggest a potential for adventure, while the soft, muted colors and dreamlike atmosphere create a sense of peace and tranquility. Wu Qiong's signature style, with its simplified forms and surreal imagery, invites viewers to connect with their own sense of wonder and imagination.
About the artist
Born in China, Beijing in 1981, Wu Qiong graduated from the Beijing Shi Fan University in 2001 and Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts in 2006. He was exposed to art very young in life with his father being an artist and his mother being a fashion designer.
Wu Qiong’s art focuses on childhood, capturing a nostalgic and sometimes humorous portrayal of a generation's childhood experiences. Inspired by China and Singapore, his post-Pop art blends elements of Pop Art with a more personal and nostalgic touch. His experiences growing up in the 1980s under the one-child policy also influences his creations.
Wu Qiong’s art has garnered attention internationally and in China, though his collector are typically kept private. His art has also been exhibited at various international fairs including Art Miami, Art Cologne and Bridge Art Fair.
