Xidong Luo

Xidong Luo is a self-taught fine art photographer based in south China. She specializes in using mirrors, flowers and other natural elements to honor the grace of age, to express the evanescent feminine beauty and the built-in female pain, the profound connectedness between female and nature, Yin and Yang, life and death.

Her creation is deeply rooted in and influenced by the traditional Chinese philosophy Taoism, which claims that “Heaven and earth coexist with me, and all things and I are one (物我合一)”.

The inspiration of using a mirror came from the Chinese idiom “镜花水月”. Literally it means "flowers in the mirror and the moon reflected in the water", which is a metaphor of the UNCERTAINTY, UNATTAINABILITY and NOTHINGNESS of life itself. Visually, it adds more dimensions and emotive weights to the creation in a sense of surrealism.

As an amateur dancer, she takes the advantage by using herself as the medium of expression to accomplish her art projects ever since the COVID-19 lockdown. Yet it's not just about the beauty of a body shape, it’s more about her profound comprehending and cherishing of life through sorrowfully accepting its fleeting nature.
