身处在高新技术推动不断演变却也渐趋混沌的时代,结束了中央美术学院版画系以及法国巴黎索尔邦第一大学的学业,他最终选择以摄影做为其作品的主要呈现方式,创作了《工地》,《尘》,《地图》,《模形》,《真实幻像》,《忍冬》等等诸多系列摄影作品。他认为摄影能够准确表达他对当代社会的感受,特别是围绕真实与虚构等二元概念之间关系的沉思。他将清醒的意识注入到无限庞大的视觉符码之中,努力去触碰世界的真相与生命的本质。

Having graduated from the printmaking department at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing and received an MFA from the Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University, Ji eventually decided to devote himself to the medium of photography in an era of constant evolution and chaos driven by high technology. He is known for his many series, including Dust, The Map, Maquette, Real Illusion, and Metempsychosis. He believes that photography can most accurately express his feelings about contemporary society, especially his contemplation around the duality of its nature, the real and the fictional. He dedicates his conscious mind to the vast and endless ocean of visual codes, endeavoring to touch the truth of the world and the essence of life.
