Shen Wei

Overview

Flowers Gallery is delighted to announce the first major UK solo exhibition by New York-based Chinese artist Shen Wei. The exhibition brings together works from several series from 2009 to the present day, incorporating photography and moving image. Responding to his conservative upbringing in Shanghai, Shen Wei’s self-portraits, nudes and sensuous landscape photographs explore notions of identity, memory and sexuality. This exhibition draws connections between the influence of Chinese culture and his own personal process of self-discovery.
