李明 Li Ming ( b.1986 )

1986年生于沅江，现生活和工作于杭州。2008年于中国美术学院获得学士学位。

李明早期的实践以DV镜头记录下艺术家自身在中国高速城市化风景中进行的表演而为人所知。他以自身作品媒介中的时间性，检视数字图像和物质流通的逻辑。在一些作品中，他尝试将这些流通逻辑转化为图像递进的规则。总体而言，其作品的偶发和游戏性等特质，能让人想起90年代中国观念艺术和录像艺术的若干线索。李明的录像作品除了探索数字影像存储设备对记忆和时间感知的影响以外，他的日常冥想实践也启发他追求一种感受性的电影，映射我们的内在现实，以及不同现实之间的超距联结。这点体现在他作品中的非线性影像节奏；在他的影像剪辑以及他对日常事件所进行的重新编排中，都可以见到这样的节奏——时而近乎迷幻，时而仿佛素人自制影片。

Born in Yuanjiang in 1986, currently lives and works in Hangzhou. In 2008, he received his BFA from the China Academy of Art.

Li Ming began to be known to the scene due to his early experimental performances, often recorded through DV cameras, intervening in the rapid urbanization of the Chinese landscape. His oeuvres examine the material flow of commodities or digital data through its time-based quality, in which a particular logic of circulation tends to be adopted as a loose protocol that guides the image sequences. Above all, the qualities of spontaneity and serendipity invoked the inaugural Chinese conceptualism and video art of the 1990s. Set in the age of data abundance that altered our sense of memory and temporality, Li Ming’s video work was impacted by his daily meditation practices. Together, it has led the artist to search for a cinema of affect with his sense of cognitive inner realities and its hyper-connectivity. This aspect is best epitomized by his creative use of non-linear rhythm in film editing and the densely choreographed daily events, at times psychedelic, at times reminiscent of homemade video reels.
