Still water runs deep, and it connects all things together. A dawn is the quietest time if you look at it, but you can hear the earth waking up. Everything happens for a reason. When a dawn breaks in, it will be a new start.

静水深流,它将所有事物连接在一起。黎明在你看着它时是最安静的时刻,但是您可以听到地球和土地醒来。一切的发生都是有原因的,当黎明破晓时,这将是一个新的开始。


Artist Biography

Xin Wen is a young Canadian surrealist painter whose ancestral home is in Yunnan, China. Yunnan is the oldest cultural and artistic multi-ethnic province in China. As a descendant of the Bai ethnic group, she is passionate about exploring Asian culture and ancient oriental myths and legends. Passionate about multiculturalism, she was fascinated by folktales with the theme of yokai, deities and spirits in classical Asian mythology, and her artistic adventures began. Her passion for the arts led her to earn a Diploma in Makeup from the Blanche Macdonald Global School of Makeup for Television and Film. Later, she was admitted to the Emily Carr University of Art + Design. In 2022, a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree was awarded.

As a keen and aspiring creator, Xin Wen cherishes and values any opportunity to be active in the local visual art scene. She was the art director and executive of a large independent commercial mural project in Richmond. Her passion for ethnic wear and artistic Avant-garde modern fashion has led her to model on the catwalk at Leisure Centre. These social practices have enriched her artistic creation. At the same time, she is also studying basic courses in design, animation, and film at the Vancouver Film School to enhance her knowledge and vision of digital art. In 2022, she worked as a production designer on the short film “The Faraway place”, an award-winning short that subsequently entered the top 6 at the Crazy8 Film Festival. After nine years of continuous art study and practice, Wen Xin’s latest series of paintings use contemporary language to describe the contemporary customs and style in her daily life and uses classical oil painting as a medium to present those dreamlike scenes, which resonates harmoniously with the audience’s daily life.

Xin Wen’s surreal paintings have been recognized by local galleries in Canada. Her works were exhibited at the well-known Polygon Gallery in North Vancouver, and she was invited to participate in an international exhibition in Dalian, China.

Xin Wen’s art is a fusion of tradition, history, and multiculturalism. She re-conceived the presentation of oriental literati scroll paintings, carefully designing them on large canvases so that the audience can feel the metaphors in them from the bottom of their hearts. The multi dimensional and varied educational criteria she received have greatly enhanced her creativity and expressiveness in contemporary painting art. In the ever-changing artistic creation, Xin Wen’s paintings re-present familiar things to the audience in a fresh and otherworldly form. Introduce the audience to go beyond the known artistic cognition, thereby improving their artistic perception and appreciation, seeking to create a new surreal artistic conception.
