[edit] Biography
Song Dong has been a significant figure in the Chinese conceptual art since the early 1990s. His multidisciplinary practice includes, performance, photography, projection, video and installation. Emerging from a strong Beijing-based avant-garde performance art community, Song Dong explores notions of perception and the ephemeral nature of existence. His political and financial circumstances have encouraged a solitary, meditative way of working in which ideas are expressed through inexpensive materials and small-scale works.
