Jiawei Gong is a digital media artist and an art professor at Texas Tech University. In the past 20 years, Gong has practiced in both applied and fine art disciplines. His exhibition record to date includes over 70 group and solo exhibitions regionally, nationally, and internationally in the U.S., Europe, and China. He has won a number of awards at international film festivals and art competitions. The artworks presented in this exhibition are selected from the ART series, a body of work that Gong has been developing for over 10 years. These works address issues surrounding the systematization and institutionalization of art making throughout human history, and the similarities of this pursuit across different cultures. The ART series consists of digital compositions, interactive installations, and online games. Highlighted in this exhibition, the digital compositions are a reminiscence of traditional painting, illustration, prints, and photography.
