BROOK·YANLIN

Brook Yanlin, an undergraduate  in Fine Arts with a focus on oil painting at Zhongbei College, Nanjing Normal University, experienced a transformative shift in artistic style starting in the first half of 2020. Influenced deeply by German Neo-Expressionists like Frank Auerbach and Anselm Kiefer, Yanlin began experimenting with a diverse range of materials in the form of mixed-media paintings on canvas, resulting in over 60 such experimental creations to date.

In the latter half of 2021, Yanlin took the initial steps outside the realm of canvas-based painting, venturing into the domains of image, sound, and installation art. By 2022, there were already promising results in the exploration of image and sound. In October 2022,Yanlin began to try to shoot a film, and the first short film was completed in December 2023, but the long film is still being polished. in June 2023, Yanlin initiated the creation of interactive installations merging sound and visuals.Looking forward, in 2024, Yanlin is set to embark on a  journey to Germany, furthering artistic pursuits in an international context.
