Yixiao Zhang

Yixiao Zhang earned his BFA in sculpture in Beijing in 2024, and is now pursuing his MFA in Visual Art. Yixiao’s practice is rooted in the influences of traditional Asian culture and shaped by the rapid social changes he has witnessed, as well as his international experiences seen through the lens of magical realism. Drawing inspiration from dreams, memories, and old family photographs, Yixiao blends classical techniques with contemporary forms to depict uncanny portraits, vernacular objects, and dreamscapes from his memory.
