Liu Yujia was born in Sichuan Province in 1981. She graduated from Sichuan Fine Arts Institute in 2004 and got her master's degree in London College of Communication, University of the Arts London in 2009. She currently lives and works in Beijing. Her recent solo exhibitions include The Beach, A Fantasy, Tang contemporary art, Beijing, 2017; Vertigo, Tang contemporary art, Beijing, 2016; The Third Man, Shanghai Gallery of Art, Shanghai, 2015; Her recent group shows mainly include New Metallurgists, Julia Stoschek Collection, Dusseldorf, Germany, 2018; After Nature, UCCA DUNE Art Museum, Beidaihe, 2018; Aquatopia, CFCCA, Manchester, UK, 2018; Frontier: Re-assessment of Post-Globalizational Politics, OCAT， Shanghai, 2017; Your Selfie Stick (and You)， Lianzhou Photo Museum， Lianzhou, 2017; Why Not Ask Again? -11th Shanghai Biennale, PSA, Shanghai, 2016; The Image Expression In the Art Practice of New Generation, Xi'An Art Museum, Xi'An，2016; Take me out, K11 Art Museum, Shanghai, 2016; The System of Objects, Minsheng Art Museum, Shanghai, 2015, etc. Liu Yujia's recent practice engages with moving images. Her video and films explore the dialectical tension between documentary reality and fiction, examining the complex and mysterious dimension of subjective experience in different social and political contexts. The artist shoots the 'real life' scenes in a documentary way, meanwhile the privacy and invisible dimension of 'real life' could be revealed by her fictional or 'take' figures. In this way, she displays a paradoxical overlap of documentary and fiction－the figures are as if 'performing themselves'， as J·Bentham puts it， they are the images of themselves. Her recent practice reveals the fictional and illusory aspects of social reality, allowing the audience to experience reality as pure fiction. |
