Seeker of Hope: Works By Jia Aili 

Always By My Side
Jia Aili is an accomplished chinese painter who has embarked on a collaboration with the Singapore Arts Museum to come up with a collection of artworks that reflect changes in the Chinese Society since the year 2000. His works are a true story about the reality of life, reflected in the advancement of technology and the increase or modern appeal. All emotions from life to death are expressed in his strong artistic explorations, with different representations that have come together.









Old Painter

Born in a time of open economy and increasing prosperity in China, Jia Aili represents a young generation worried about losing age old traditions and values in a fast evolving world, questioning the true meaning of life. The solitary figures in his epic-scale and visually stunning works, seem to be searching for hope amidst the ruins of modern civilisation. In the midst of his desolate landscapes, there exists a yearning and hope for a possibility of redemption and saving.
