Biography

Ren Han was born in 1984 in Tianjin, China. He studied from 2002 to 2006 at the Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts in the department of oil painting. From 2007 to 2011, he lives in France. In 2011, he graduated DNSEP (Diplôme National Supérieur d'Expression Plastique) from Villa Arson Nice. Han Ren is developing a drawing praxis. He works almost solely with lead pencil-a technique whose visual properties he is methodically exploring. So his wall drawings involve huge panoramas wavering between abstract landscape and cartography.[2] His drawings and installations, borrow the labyrinth, the mirror, the virtual landscape to evoke dualities ambivalence or opposition of opposites which are the key fundamental of his artistic research, and we reposition the face of the paradoxes of our conflicting instincts.[3]
