Xiang Jing is an artist based in Beijing mostly working in sculpture. Xiang Jing graduated from the Department of Sculpture of China Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing. She was instantly successful in her field. Her graduating works won first prize in the Graduation Show of Central Academy of Fine Arts 1995 and she also won the Okamatsu Family Fund. These sculptures that won these prizes were collected by the school because of the beauty and interest that were shown in them. After graduation, she continued to sculpt women and a few other objects. She taught at Shanghai Normal University from 1997 to 2009.She is widely known for her sculpting and is recognized by getting invitations to display her sculptures all over the world. Xiang Jing is one of the few successful sculptors or painters who excels at creating a woman's body which depicts the body realistically and all its imperfection. Each sculpture seems to have a unique trait that tells a story of a certain aspect of life. Her sculpting has evolved since her original works at the Central Academy of Fine Arts to a unique style that is unmatched by any other artist. Her work can be divided into Mirror Image , Keep in Silence , and Naked Beyond Skin series. She moved back to her hometown Beijing in 2009. Most of her sculptures are based on women whose shows the imperfect nature and realness of women. She does not make her sculptures perfect; instead, she gives them flaws that are common in women. These flaws often include a flabby waistline, a lack of expression on the face, and often an off shaped body. Xiang Jing seems to convey the humility or emptiness of the everyday woman on the surface. The artist is truly interested in the psychological truth of human beings and seeks the existential truth of human life. Her latest series of works Will Things Ever Get Better? is composed of the animals and the acrobats, which reflects on the predicament of our human condition.
