Raised in Shenzhen, Guangdong and currently based in Brooklyn, NY, Wenlu Bao received her BA of Sports English in Beijing Sport University, BA of TV Directing in Communication University of China and MFA of Photographic and Electronic Media in Maryland Institute College of Art. She sets out from her personal perspective in order to dig deeply into modern cyberculture, video as a medium and visual expressions. Integration and conflicts of values and aesthetics between East and West have hugely influenced her. Shackles and breakthroughs, stereotypes and resists in her works always appear as basic contradictions which inspire her a lot. Through different media like video, installation, visual and photography, with self-portrait, she concentrates on depicting awakening and revolting of individuals and females against stereotype and pressure under mass-culture.
