Family Memorial Ceremony

This piece of work directly comes from my psychological experience of family and it is oneâ??s release of long time spiritual pressure. The process of its creation is also the process of my individual thinking.
In this work, the concept of family is generalized. It not only refers to family but also symbolizes some kind of solace. I peacefully confess before it and gain energy from the warmth of â??familyâ?? and recover my lost self-confidence. I also try to reconcile with my inner heart in order to shuffle off the long-distressing anxiety and the sense of unsafeness
It is a memorial ceremony, a spiritual sacrifice and cure.

• Biography
  Personal information Name: Shen Linghao Birth date: March 2, 1988 Birth place: Shanghai Education: graduated from School of Fine Arts, Shanghai Institute of Visual Arts Self-Statement As for me, artistic creation is the best way to reconcile life and spirit. Life experiences and past memories are both important for my creation. In the process of creation, the conflict in mind and the delicacy in heart are completely expressed and reflected; in the end, they all try to come to harmony.
