Feng Zheng Jie Exhibition at Singapore art museum

If the eyes are the windows to one's soul, then the art of Feng Zhengjie can be said to reveal as much as they conceal, the psyche of the self, in contemporary society. A renowned artist in the contemporary Chinese art scene, the works of Feng Zhengjie examine consumer society while engaging with a spectrum of folk art motifs and popular culture as a response to the new issues that are confronting China. This exhibition includes a special focus on his recent works of women portraits which the artist is known for. Charming, capricious and contradictory, Feng Zhengjie’s women present an ambivalent answer to the question of nature and artifice that continues to captivate. At the same time, Primary Colours is an invitation to discover the different shades of meaning in Feng’s art.
