Hu, a representative figure in the prosperous period of digital media art

Born in Shanghai, 1957, Hu is one of the pioneer artists in the field of digital media and video equipment in China. Hu has a preference for other subjects and often hangs out in those irrelevant fields. Hu's attempt comes from paying attention to the expression of internal physiology, and transforming physiological charts, gestures, architectural space, identity and people into a comprehensive experience of mixed visual experience.

Hu's artistic creation stays in the alternation of time, space-time, history and memory, and constantly puts forward his own views and questions by using various media, whether it is photography, video or digital interactive technology. Put the viewer in a past and inaccurate time and space, and the images in personal memory will be aroused to form a text.

The objects, materials, images, interactive programs and intelligent control in Hu's works construct an unspeakable field full of infinite historical memories. They are intertwined, covered, dissolved and generated. His works convey not only the feelings of objects, but also a new narrative relationship with the present time and space. The whole space puts the viewer in an inaccurate time and space in the past, and the images in personal memory are aroused to form one text after another.
