I have been following the work of Zhang Jingna since I was in college.
Fashion and Advertising photographer, Jingna has experimented with the art of photography throughout her career. Not only does she create outstanding fashion photography, but her most captivating images are her personal work. Jingna is currently working on a collaborative project called "The Motherland Chronicles" alongside the talented illustrator, Tobias Kwan. The Motherland Chronicles is a fantasy artbook project.
I had to do an image review for a short essay in Uni. I couldn't help but choose this image. The model looks like a statue, she doesn't look the slightest bit human due to her eyes blacked out and her skin resembling marble stone.
This image reminded me of the Vanitas movement.
I love the clash of the extravagant gold against the dull grey tones in this painting.
I always look forward to when Zhang Jingna and Tobias Kwan publish more work to contribute to the Motherland Chronicles, and I'm even more excited for when their work is going to be published in an artbook.
