Wu Wei was born on March 5, 1967, in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, China, where she currently lives and works. She graduated from the Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts in 2012. In addition to formal academic training, she has participated in various overseas residencies and professional workshops led by international experts, covering Western classical and modern painting techniques as well as traditional Chinese painting studies and replication.

Her artistic practice has long focused on classical Chinese-inspired subjects, with oil painting and tempera as her primary media.

Artist Statement

“Presence with intention, creation without boundaries.”

Wu Wei’s work centers on:

• 
  The encounter between classical Eastern aesthetics and Western traditional painting materials
  
• 
  The connection between traditional color structures and contemporary visual expression
  

For viewers seeking wall art that carries a clear Chinese cultural identity while remaining refined and contemporary, Wu Wei’s figurative portraits offer a quiet density of detail. Through costume, pattern, color, and restrained human expression, her works are designed for long-term viewing and are particularly suited to high-end residential interiors and thoughtfully designed spaces.
