Born in Ningxia in 1968, Tai Xiangzhou received training in calligraphy and began studying traditional ink painting with Liu Dan in 2004, before gaining his doctoral degree from the Academy of Arts and Design at Tsinghua University in 2012. A seasoned veteran in the conservation and restoration of classical Chinese paintings, Tai is celebrated for his scrupulous explorations of the materiality of ink and paper in his artistic practice. Inspired by his experience with and research on the history of materials, he recreates ancient ink from the Qianlong period and Cheng Xin Tang paper from Southern Tang. The meticulousness and vibrancy with which Tai renders his subjects - hyper-realistic scholar's rocks, lofty mountains and fantastical landscapes - reconfigure the age-old themes into modern spectacles of transcendental beauty. Tai's anachronism is firmly bound to the classical tradition of ink painting, albeit with a contemporary twist.
