In Chinese sculpture circle for the last few years, Xiang Jing is undoubtedly a very conspicuous young artist in creation. Her works have very noticeable individual marks. In a large exhibition, her unique style and temperament would be recognized immediately. For an artist, this is certainly an advantage, showing that her personal style has been quite established with her unique art language and expression methods.

Xiang Jing began to be known for creating works on the theme of young girls. At that time, as soon as her colored portraits of young girls confused by juvenile bewilderment and questions appeared, they were widely accepted and sought after right away. Those are some quite amiable works, though they are different from these ordinary works on the juvenile theme, the most noticeable thing is that her figures are mostly in some particular situations, most of which are quite intimate girl’s circumstances. Xiang Jing doesn’t simply reproduce them, but shapes them in the realistic way with a little bit exaggeration and accentuates them in bright colors, placing the figures in the interleaving of the subjective and the objective. This is also the reason why her works are so fascinating and meaningful.

Many professionals in art circle say that, Xiang Jing is an innate artist. Continuous improvement and creating better works are always the motivation for Xiang Jing to advance courageously in art. As she grows in age and gains richer experiences, her mind becomes increasingly mature and stronger. Gradually getting away from juvenile bewilderment, Xiang Jing began to excavate in the depth of the complicated humanity. She wishes to express her personal consideration and attitude towards the world as a growing and independent-minded individual. Therefore, there is the exhibition of her recent new works at Shanghai Art Museum. The new works not only exceed the old ones in size and quantity, but also have new break-throughs in skill and narrative perspective.
