Derived from the observation of daily life, Tielin’s work examines the status of individual existence in contemporary China, as well as its relationship with space and memory. He produced his images by means of detached and ironic observations about common impressions in contemporary China and the common visual experience of contemporary Chinese people, situated in different sites and spaces such as city park, zoo, construction site and so on.
