Yuanchi Jiang is a Chinese painter based in Grenoble, France.
Through painting, observation and contemplation, his practice explores the emotional and perceptual responses evoked by a vast and mysterious nature that precedes human presence. Drawing on fragments collected from landscapes, his works unfold as traces of inner journeys and mental wanderings, where memory, sensation and imagination converge.
Working through an intuitive and gestural process, Jiang transforms elements of the visible world into open images suspended between light and darkness. Brushstrokes accumulate, disperse and collide, allowing chance to shape the surface and preserving the painting in a state of perpetual becoming rather than fixed completion.
Jiang graduated from the École supérieure d’art et design Grenoble-Valence, where he obtained the DNAP in 2016 and the DNSEP in 2018. He currently lives and works in Grenoble, France.
