YU Fengli

In 1981, YU Fengli was born in an artistic family in Northeastern China. Her uncle is a professor at Luxun Art Institute. During her studies at the Central China Academy of Fine Arts, she has evolved into a young painter skilled in blending contemporariness with classical painting techniques.

What distinguishes YU from other ordinary portrait artists is her curiosity to delve into the human psyche and seek for the ultimate reality. She believes that human beings in the modern era only show the most beautiful parts of their lives to others. She is interested in unveiling what is hidden inside the complex human psyche.
