Episode 27: Artist Peng Jian
PENG JIAN WAS BORN IN YUEYANG, HUNAN PROVINCE IN 1982. HE GRADUATED WITH AN MFA FROM CHINA ACADEMY OF ART AT HANGZHOU IN 2013, WHERE HE STILL WORKS AND LIVES. PENG JIAN’S PAINTINGS ARE BOLD IN COLOUR, AND ANGULAR IN LINE, CHANNELLING THE FORCE OF THE ANCIENT CHINESE ARCHITECTURAL DISCIPLINE OF JIEHUA. THE ARTIST HARNESSES THE RULER TOOLS THAT WERE USED TO BRING BUILDINGS TO LIFE IN IMPERIAL TIMES。 HIS WORKS ARE COLLECTED BY THE TODAY ART MUSEUM, THE LIU HAISU ART MUSEUM AND THE FONDATION LOUIS VUITTON.

ORA-ORA WILL SPEAK WITH PENG JIAN ON FRIDAY 25 SEPTEMBER 2020 AT 3:00PM HKT. THE INTERVIEW WILL BE BROADCASTED ON FACEBOOK.
