Li Yaoyao(b. 1994) born in Chengdu, China, graduated from Sichuan Fine Art Institute before getting the Master's degree in Venice Academy of Fine Arts, Italy. She currently lives and works in Chengdu.
Her artistic practice spans performance, video, and text. By connecting disparate memoryscapes with the transformative self-imagery of the body, she focuses on each present moment while reconstructing an authentic and balanced relationship—one that contains a capacious vessel in a perpetual cycle of filling and overflowing.
李尧瑶(b.1994) ,本科毕业于四川美术学院,2021年硕士毕业于威尼斯美术学院,现生活工作在成都。她的作品涵盖了行为、影像、文字等创作媒介,从不同的记忆情境链结到身体的自我意象转化,在专注于每个当下的同时,再构建一种真实可靠的平衡关系,这个关系里会包含一个正在不断盛接又不断在溢满的容量空间。
