Ma Jianfeng

Ma Jianfeng (b. 1983, Zhejiang province) graduated from China Academy of Art in 2007 before earning his MFA from Berlin University of the Arts in 2012. He currently lives and works in Beijing. Ma incorporates abandoned materials and objects from everyday encounters into his work and disrupts their inherent order. Through reconstruction, assemblage, and reconfiguration, he creates painting installations that are theatrical sites of chaos and ambiguity to interrogate the politics of space. Recent solo exhibitions include “MA” (Ying Space, Beijing, 2016); “Shanghai Lady” (Swatch Art Peace Hotel, Shanghai, 2014); “The Wall” (Dong Gallery, Shanghai, 2013). Group exhibitions include “Never Arriving: OCAT Xi’an 2014 Summer Projects” (OCAT Xi’an, 2014).
