1983年生于四川,现工作生活于北京。胡尹萍硕士毕业于央美雕塑系,但不局限于雕塑本体的物质性,她更多的是让周遭的环境和际遇成为她作品的土壤。胡尹萍将其创作定义为介于“事情”与“作品”间的状态,意味她的艺术实践与真实生活有着深刻连结。胡尹萍将许多作品的媒介标注为“事情”,作品通常是持续一段时间或者一直持续,这类实践可追溯到她硕士毕业后发起的三个艺术小组。


Born in Sichuan in 1983, and currently lives and works in Beijing. Despite earning her MFA at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 2010, her works are not limited to the materiality of sculpture. Instead, she channels chance meetings and fortuitous situations into insightful scenarios. Hu Yinping defines her art as a state between “event” and “work”, implying a deep connection between artistic practice and real life. Hu often labels the medium of her works as “event” and these works usually last for a period of time or are even ongoing. Such practices can be traced back to the three art groups she initiated after obtaining her MFA.
