DAI Zhankun

Born in Jiujiang, China in 1995

Currently lives and works in Shanghai

 

“Searching” and “accident” are the roots of Dai Zhankun’s creation. In his view, the acquisition of real-world images has a certain fit with the act of taking screenshots in digital scenes, and he tried to ask a series of questions about it. The truth can be redefined, and the virtual and the real are invading each other. He is good at using simple pictures and installations to guide the audience into intricate layers, and his attention to social issues such as force, power, and identity is invisible on the surface and hidden behind.
