Xie Hongdong: The Third Compass
June 2nd – July 8th
Opening Reception: June 2nd | 6 – 8 PM
“Based in Beijing, Hongdong draws on his upbringing in Gansu Province of northwest China, a diverse landscape of grassland, desert, mountain range, and river, to make his photographs that abstract elements of the natural world. Both obscure and familiar in their physicality, Hongdong’s works touch on the subconscious with their intuitive link between the external environment and internal psyche. The artist adheres to a strict principle of no post-photo manipulation to preserve the translation from life to frame, perfecting this self-taught approach to photography since 2012.”
