About

Lishuang Xu (b.1989, Changsha) is an art practitioner based in Hunan and Shanghai. She graduated from the University of the Arts London (Chelsea College of Arts) with First Class Honours in BA Fine Art in 2019.

Engaging with urban spaces through physical intervention and camera documentation, Xu investigates the increasingly alienated and unstable relationship between individuals, living space, and architecture. Through video, performance, and installation, she constructs scenes of otherness and scenarios of playful seriousness based on everyday life and mundane behaviour. By reinforcing bodily experience, she aims to reveal the entanglement between subjective perception and objective reality.

徐立霜，1989年出生于长沙，毕业于伦敦艺术大学切尔西艺术学院，获得美术学一等荣誉学士学位，现生活于中国上海、长沙。

徐立霜以身体干预城市空间，或是用随身相机进行拍摄记录，以此研究个体、生活空间和建筑之间日益疏远和不稳定的关系。通过录像、表演和装置，她在日常生活和世俗行为的基础上构建了异样的场景和有趣的严肃情节。通过强化身体体验，她意图揭示主观感知与客观现实之间的纠缠。
