Miao Jiaxin

Times Square, 2006

Miao Jiaxin is from Shanghai but is currently living in the United States, completing an MFA at the Art Institute of Chicago. There is a great mix of work on his site, with some radically different approaches. The above image is taken from the 2006 series Times Square, “a juxtaposition of Shanghai and NYC created in film using only traditional exposure methods.” I also suggest taking a look at Good Night New York; proof that this is a man who is willing to suffer for his art. Some of this work is for sale with a French online gallery, Wanted Paris, at very reasonable prices.
