Xie Lei

b. 1983, Huainan, Anhui Province, China. Xie Lei is a Madrid and Paris-based artist. Ancient rituals, traditional Chinese imagery or Western mythology form the subjects of many of his paintings. Xie Lei often eschews delineating ground from sky, proximity from depth and foreground from background, thereby deliberately confusing the viewer’s sense of time and space and disseminating a sense of ethereality into paintings that look no more like windows into a new world but as symbolist talismans facing the viewer.
