Maude Ren

I am a multimedia artist originally from Fujian, China, now living in Richmond, Canada since 2023. I graduated from Quanzhou Dongfeng Art School in Fujian, China in 1999. My art practice encompasses drawing, painting, photography, and video. I have participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions in China. My first show, titled “The Starry Night of Quanzhou” was held in my hometown Quanzhou. Last year, I participated in a group show, “The City of Treasured Gods: Quanzhou Art Collective Exhibition.” During this time, I created multi-material works using local natural materials such as oyster shells and colored clay. Notable pieces include "Rising Dragon," "Heritage Maritime Silk Road Scroll," and "Nine-Dragon Wall of Quanzhou," which garnered significant attention both online and offline, with related reports in the media. I have also been commissioned by various institutions and companies to create public art. In addition, I work in graphic design, creating logos and mascots for multiple organizations and companies. My self-created series "Wobbly Neck Quanzhou People" has been featured in newspaper and TV interviews multiple times and has been licensed for commercial use by several companies, including well-known Chinese enterprises such as Poly Real Estate and Peak Group. This series has also become a cultural icon of Quanzhou Old Town. I have received awards for both my art and design work, and some of my pieces have been collected by private collectors and companies.
