Born in Beijing, China in 1982, Tian Xiaolei graduated from Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA) majored in digital media.
Digital media art is the carrier of his creation. He is interested in the uncertainty of the rapid iteration in this era and interested in the relationship between life science and technology, also in the future evolution in this new species produced by the hybrid age. He uses the artist's perspective to create the future world specimens, blend of history, religion, science and technology, the body, and to create the new artistic experience.
