Jiayang is a new media artist and independent film director who was born in 1994 in Hangzhou, China. He has been trained as a painter at Affiliated High School of CAA. He was graduated from the photography department of Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts. He received an offer from the Maryland Institution of Fine art in the same year, where he started a new journey of art and technology. He returned to China in 2020, and he has participated in many international film festivals and art exhibitions. Also, he has experience participating in the Youth Art Residency Program in Guangdong. Now, he is based in Hangzhou and continues to do art practice with the image as significant media.

My current area of interest and research direction is to convey stories about reality and fiction with images as propositions, exploring the Intentionality and Complexity of subject and object. Differentiate the expression of language, hoping to bring people different ways of cognition through more intuitive images. My themes are usually inspired in daily life, such as "virus", "Internet emoji", "personal memory", in order to establish a symbol to imply the relationship between subject and object. Currently, I use computer-generated images (CGI) as my main narrative tool, through the surreal and absurd sense of "photorealistic rendered images" to reshape a blurred boundary between reality and virtuality.
