Steve Turner is pleased to present My Garden, a solo exhibition by London-based Tang Shuo featuring new paintings that are inspired by the remote and primitive Chinese village where Shuo spent his youth. According to the artist, "Before I left, my entire world was this small village. My core values and worldview were shaped there. As I look back, I see it as the garden of my childhood, the place where I grew up, witnessing joy and sadness as well as good and evil. With my paintings I retrace the footsteps of ancestors who endured decades of turmoil in China. I aim to convey their struggle and their strength."
Tang Shuo (b. 1987, Guilin, China) graduated from Guangxi Arts University with a bachelor’s degree in Mural Painting and later studied Experimental Art at Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing. He has had solo exhibitions at Konig Gallery, Berlin; Beers, London (2024); Fabienne Levy Gallery, Geneva (2023); Ojiri Gallery, London (2023). This is his first exhibition with Steve Turner.
