Xia Xiaowan is a Chinese artist who uses an interesting
and unique technique of layering multiple 2d drawings and paintings to create a
three dimensional image. Using this technique Xia Xiaowan is able to create a
deep image that appears almost holographic. The artist creates work centered on
the human form. Each layer of the glass holds a part of the overall composition.
This structured system creates a hologram-like affect showcasing the bold three
dimensional subjects.
“My experimental series of glass paintings is an attempt to deconstruct realistic painting and then reconstruct it from its key principles.” – Xia Xiaowan
