    Xin Huang


Xin Huang (b. 1996) is a multidisciplinary artist from China, holding a Bachelor's degree in Sculpture from Hubei Institute of Fine Arts and an MFA from the Glasgow School of Art (2022). Her work explores memory, trauma, and power dynamics, constructing condensed narratives that merge personal and collective experiences. Xin’s practice employs moving image, installation, text, performance, and photography, often blending these mediums to create dynamic, interactive experiences that encourage audience engagement. Humor and satire are integral to her approach, serving as tools to provoke empathy, navigate themes of resilience and resistance, and engage the viewer on an emotional level. Drawing inspiration from both her personal archives and historical events, Xin reinterprets them through a satirical lens, revealing how past experiences subtly ripple into the present and continue to shape contemporary narratives. Xin’s works have been exhibited in Shanghai, Beijing, Glasgow, and London.
