Xuanru Wang（b.2000） is an artist with an interdisciplinary practice in ceramics, film, writing and painting. She graduated from the Royal College of Art.

​

Xuanru's work focuses on the ethical dilemmas of female sexuality in a way that is between autobiography, fiction and myth. She tries to build a sublime state of love, presenting an erotic landscape of agony, entanglement, ecstasy and hysteria. Xuanru's work is intimate and directly related to private sensory experience. She continuously generates new narratives by anatomising the subjective experience with external archives and using this as a raw text for her painting practice.

​

Xuanru views her interdisciplinary practice as a translation exercise. She makes a translation of sensation between textual language and painting language. By constantly deconstructing and reconstructing the text, the text becomes deformed and fissioned then she collects the metaphors that emerge in the process. In this way, she destroys, dismantles, and weaves metaphorical prostheses to create a fictional body.
