I met with Gypsy in 2018 when I was couch surfing in Shanghai. The minute I saw his art in his studio I fell in love with it. Although we come from different backgrounds and cultures we both share the same values and a deep love for humanity. Gypsy was already creating a buzz in the Shanghai art scene with different exhibitions and art performances. I felt a deep connection to his art and the way he wants to break from the normal Chinese tradition by being part of the drag community in Shanghai. However, certain galleries have misused his art and print merchandise was made without any consent from Gypsy. Then we've decided to sign Gypsy to my Consulting Firm to protect his interests and promote his work free of charge. All art created by Gypsy comes with a special handwritten thank you note to the buyer. Gypsy's canvases are homemade with special paper and glue. If you would like to commission a painting with regular canvas please let me know at . Below you'll find an introduction that TankShanghai art gallery wrote about Gypsy. - Mohamed EL Bazzaz General Manager INVICTA -- "Gypsy, born in 1996, graduated from environmental engineering, Jiangsu University in 2018 and is currently based in Shanghai, China. While his time in university was spent studying environmental engineering, Gypsy made more than 100 artistic pieces, driven only by his unrelenting desire to create. His works include paintings, installations, performances, videos, and costume designs. Gypsy always starts from core ideas of form, nature, and humanity. His affinity for playfulness and sanguinity in his creative process helps him to pursue heavy themes of love, freedom, and death with a mischievous reverie. Within his six years in Shanghai, he'd exhibited works at galleries and art spaces in Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Guangzhou. His artworks and stories were included in nonon magazine, ASPZ magazine, and also included in the Yearbook of Contemporary Chinese University Students' Art Works in 2018. Gypsy's art is haunting and beautiful, grounded in physicality but at the same time unreal and otherworldly.
