Steven He

(b. 1994 in Shanghai, China) completed his MA at the Royal College of Art in London and is a Merit Scholarship recipient at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago (BA) in 2016

He makes satirical comments on universal traditions and the peculiar ways in which our attention can be drawn. By playing fast and loose with the gap between eastern and western notions of beauty and philosophy, he aims to tease out mechanisms that help these ideas plant themselves in our minds and to bring the audience closer the majesty of things that can often be overlooked.
