Bio
While primarily focusing on digital art, Han’s work also extends to printmaking, video, installation and performance art. She earned her B.F.A. and M.F.A. in Printmaking from China Academy of Art (Hangzhou) and her M.F.A. in Digital Arts from Pratt Institute (New York) in 2017. Currently, She lives and works in New York and Hangzhou as an artist, and adjunct professor at Stony Brook University (New York) and China Academy of Art. Han’s work has continued to exhibit in the U.S. and China, including Nassau County Museum of Art, Roslyn, NY; Long Island Biennial, The Heckscher Museum of Art, Huntington, New York (2016, 2018); Open books, Connecticut College, New London, Connecticut (2018); Forms and thoughts: The 8th New Star Art Award Shortlisted Artists' Group Exhibition 2017, Deji Art Museum, Nanjing, China, Han Qin: Where is Home, Long Island Museum, Stony Brook, New York (2017) and Changjiang International Photography & Video Biennale, Changjiang Museum of Contemporary Art, Chongqing, China (2017).

Han’s workflows from her experience of home and relocation. Moved from China at age 24, she feels the ambivalence between nostalgia and wistfulness of transition. This encouraged her to create this uncertainty and spectacular feeling throughout her work. Interested in the social phenomenon of groups and individuals move from places to places, she translated the moments of passing through, getting togethering, migrating and even conflicting.

韩沁将她传统美学实践融入到数字艺术创作之中,作品呈现在多种材料上,包括版画、数字媒体、帆布丙烯、视频、装置等。韩沁的创作源自对家国和迁徙的经历。 24岁离开中国,她强烈地感受到乡愁与追求之间的矛盾。 这使她在整个创作中出现一种飘渺不定而波澜壮阔的视觉感受。她的作品对旅行意义、社会通行、人类迁徙等人们移动、变化的行为提出思考。 她将人群穿越空间,人流聚集,迁徙甚至相互冲突的形态变化转化成视觉画面、影像和装置。描述了人性的归属感和人口大迁徙的样貌,并将迁徙和栖息的社会动态艺术化、图案化。
