Chinese Artist: Ren Hang - 任航
Born in Changchun, Jilin Province, China, in 1987; based in Beijing.
Ren Hang’s images are uncensored, erotic, twisted, raw, and are censored in China. They cast light on an otherwise shadowy Chinese underground youth culture, where lust and indulgence run as rampant as anywhere else in the world.
Although Hang is new gen, his determination mimics that of his fellow Beijing creatives. Ai Weiwei co-curated a show with Hang in 2013. He uses his art for activism, employing mixed media to advocate for human rights and oppression and was thrown in jail in 2011 for 81 days – he’s now banned from leaving China at all.
“I care that the government wants to limit me. Of course, I don’t want to go to jail, but I don’t think there’s a way to fix that” says Hang.
