Funa Ye

Now based in Beijing.

Funa Ye`s practice is mainly concerned with the relationship between the realities of every day life, the perceived connection between authority and many areas of social life such as different power structure, ethnic groups, and the fictional space of propaganda for the concept of ‘perfection’ in an ideological system, and utopian landscape. Therefore, the work is politically charged, subtly engaged in pastiche as a satirizing style of propaganda. The work of Funa is rich in reference, parody and irony of the uniformity cultures.

作品主要通过现实生活中用幽默和反讽的手法探讨权威和多元文化的关系。如大众媒体对少数民族等边缘人物的刻板印象、“完美”的审美观下虚构的美景。或借用老照片表述时代背景因素对个人一生的影响。以引用,戏仿或反讽一些模式文化的方式,来分类和处理这种形态类似的典型图片,对他们的主旨进行分析和引伸。
