About HanXiao

June 14, 2009 Debut was inspired and affirmed by a letter from Charles Saatchi.  In 2014, it was discovered by Rebecca Wilson, chief curator and art development director of the American art platform "Saatchi Online".  The existing 96 works have been widely collected by collectors in the United States, Taiwan, Germany, Spain, Greece, Australia, Switzerland, Canada, Portugal, Nigeria, and Brazil. The main themes I pursue include conflicts in life, confrontations with strange shapes in the social environment, and the contradictions behind reality. Now, I have drawn a series of portrait themes, including my lover, friend, my mother, animal, model, student or myself.

＂...Her portraits possess an innate sense of loneliness and anxiety, and are reminiscent of Francis Bacon’s paintings. She deliberately blurs out the faces of her subjects and makes it difficult to discern any identifiable features. Her energetic and highly impastoed brush strokes and rich color palette of vibrant blues, ochres, greens, and pinks illuminate her canvases and beg the viewer to linger. ＂
