A leading female sculptor and figure in Chinese contemporary art,
Yin Xiuzhen (b. 1963, Beijing, China) began her career in the early
1990s following her graduation from Capital Normal University in
Beijing where she received a B.A. from the Fine Arts Department in
1989. Best known for her works that incorporate second-hand
objects, Yin uses her artwork to explore modern issues of
globalization and homogenization. By utilizing recycled materials
such as sculptural documents of memory, she seeks to personalize
objects and allude to the lives of specific individuals, which are
often neglected in the drive toward excessive urbanization, rapid
modern development and the growing global economy. The artist
explains, "In a rapidly changing China, 'memory' seems to vanish
more quickly than everything else. That's why preserving memory has
become an alternative way of life."
